Hardware RAID setup
This chapter describes hardware mirroring (RAID1) setup. We only support mirroring. We
do not support operation for other RAIDs (RAID0, RAID5, and RAID10). Be aware that
functions not supported are outside the scope of the warranty.
Hardware RAIDs are also hot-swappable.
Functional specification
For more on the specifications of RAID boards (hereinafter described as “mirror card”)
used for hardware RAIDs, refer to Chapter 2 “General”- “Specification”.
