ARS-2018/2018E Manual

JBOD (Just a Bunch of Disks)

JBOD, formal word spanning, is not a real RAID setting. It simply links a bunch of

disks into a big hard drive. It doesn’t have the functions of quick read/write speed

and error tolerance. However, compared with RAID 0, JBOD doesn’t waste the

hard drive capacity. Its capacity is the total of all hard drive capacities. For example,

set a 100GB hard drive and a 120GB one as JBOD. The total capacity is 220GB.
