Configuring physical arrays and logical drives
This subsection provides instructions for using the Easy Configuration,
New Configuration, and View/Add Configuration to configure arrays
and logical drives.
LSI Logic recommends using drives with the same capacity in a specific
array. If you use drives with different capacities in an array, the CU
treats all these drives as if they have the capacity of the smallest drive.
The number of physical drives in a specific array determines the
possible RAID levels that you can implement with the array. RAID 0
requires one to four physical drives, RAID 1 requires two physical
drives.
Physical drive parameters
You can change the write policy and read policy in the physical drives,
but not the logical drives.
