Configuration
Select this option to delete existing configuration information and
configure new arrays and logical drives into different groups. You can
perform logical drive configuration functions and associate logical drives
with multiple or partial arrays. You must first create an array. Arrays
are groups of physical drives that define the stripe width common to one
RAID type. Arrays are combined into logical drives. Logical drives can
be created out of part of an array or can be a combination of several
arrays if the arrays have the same properties.
