RAID Configuration and Management
·
Create Array (F4)—creates a drive array. When this option is selected, a default
array template is created. You must edit the array properties to complete the array
creation. Use the arrow keys to select a property field, and then press the Enter
key to edit that property. The array properties are as follows:
— Array Type—selects the intended RAID mode including RAID 0, RAID 1,
RAID 1+0, and Spare. The default for the Array Type option is RAID 0.
— Drive(s)—selects the drives for the array. This option refers to the drive
number listed in the Physical Drives Information box, not the number of
drives in the array. Use the arrow keys, and then press the spacebar to select
or deselect the drive or drives. Press the Enter key when done. There is no
default for this setting.
— Stripe Size—changes the stripe size. This field applies only to RAID 0 and
RAID 1+0 arrays. The default stripe size is 64 KB.
IMPORTANT: RAID configurations do not support a stripe size less than 32 KB.
You cannot change the stripe size of an array that already has been configured.
