It is possible to configure a raid represented by odd
number on consecutive disk drives.
Various combinations of RAID can be configured
according to the following conditions.

RAID 1
: Two consecutive hard drives (RAID
configurations represented by disk drives 1, 3, 5 and 7).

RAID 5, RAID 10
: Four consecutive hard drives (RAID
configurations represented by disk drives 1 and 5).

While RAID is rebuilding due to degradation, do
not remove a HDD to configure the RAID. If you
remove it, the data of all the connected HDDs may
