Configuration
You use MegaRAID Storage Manager software to create and modify storage con-
figurations. RAID 0, RAID 1, and RAID 10 storage configurations are supported.
Important: LSI recommends that you do not use both SAS and SATA drives in
the same array. Using different drive interfaces in this way could cause unpredict-
able behavior, decreased performance, an increased error count, and decreased
MTBF.
Note: You cannot create or modify a storage configuration unless you are logged
on with administrator privileges.
6-1 Creating a New Storage Configuration
You can use the MegaRAID Storage Manager Configuration Wizard to create new
storage configurations. To open the MegaRAID Storage Manager Configuration
Wizard, select a controller in the left panel of the MegaRAID Storage Manager
window and then select Operations -> Advanced Operations -> Configuration ->
Configuration Wizard.
