Install Disks
Install at least one, and up to 60, disks before powering on your ReadyNAS for the first time.
If you install previously formatted disks, you must use your ReadyNAS to reformat them the
first time you power on the system. For information about reformatting disks, see
Note:
Reformatting disks deletes all data on the disks.
When you power on your system for the first time or if you reset your system to its
factory default settings, the optimal RAID mode and level are automatically selected for
you based on the number of disks that are installed. If desired, you can later change the
RAID settings manually. For information about RAID settings, including changing RAID
settings, see the
ReadyNAS OS 6 Software User Manual
. A link to this manual is available at
www.netgear.com/support/product/ReadyNAS_OS_6
or through a link in the product’s user
interface.
