RAID Array capacity calculation
–
When you build the RAID in level 5, the available capacity of a RAID is (the least HDD capacity) x (total number of HDDs -1).
–
When you build the RAID in level 6, the available capacity of a RAID is (the least HDD capacity) x (total number of HDDs -2).
■
If you use HDDs with different capacity, the HDD with the smallest capacity will be used to build a RAID.
recovering raiD array
1.
If the HDD number whose <
Status
> is shown as Faulty or Check is recognized, check the location of HDD to
be replaced on the HDD map.
2.

■
Replace it with the same model of HDD or an HDD of the same capacity from the same manufacturer.
■
A HDD used to build the RAID should be one of the recommended models.
If it's not possible to use the same model of HDD, then use the HDD with the same capacity from the same manufacturer should be used.
■
If you remove the power cord while using the RAID, it can damage it, so be careful.
For reliable power, it is recommended you use the UPS.
■
A new HDD to be replaced should be one that is not RAID configured.
