The new volume will be created instantly and is ready to store backups immediately. ReadydATA’s object-based RAid
technology eliminates the need to format the drives and create parity at the time of volume creation. Parity is generated in
real-time when backups are written to the system, which allows for instant volume creation. more importantly, object-based
RAid silently repairs corrupted blocks in the event of on-disk corruption.
