Other Concerns
Availability Concern:
For safety reason, it is better to create a reserved space on more than one
logical drive.
Whatever data is put into the reserved space, firmware will automatically
duplicate and distribute it to the reserved section on every data drive. Even
if one hard drive or one logical drive fails, an exact replica still resides on
other drives.
Web-Based Management
The controller firmware has embedded http server. Once properly
configured, the controller/subsystem’s Ethernet port behaves like an HTTP
server.

3.2.1 Connecting Ethernet Port:
Use a LAN cable to connect the Ethernet port(s) on the subsystem’s RAID
controller unit(s). Use only shielded cable to avoid radiated emissions that
may cause interruptions. Connect the cable between controller’s LAN port
and a LAN port from your local network.
