8.5. Data Volume: RAID 5
1. Launch
Disk Management
(
8.2. Adjusting the RAID
). Please note
that Disk 0 may have an active partition
Data (D:)
. To create the
RAID 5 array using Disks
0
,
1
, and
2
, we must have three
Unal-
located
partitions. Therefore, the Data
(D:)
partition will be de-
leted before building the RAID 5. Since deleting the volume will
also remove the files stored on the
Data (D:)
partition, please
back up all data before moving to the next step. To delete the
partition, right-click on
Data (D:)
to select
Delete Volume...
and click
Yes
at the Windows prompts. See
7.7. Data Volume:
RAID 5
for screenshots if further details are necessary.
2. Before creating the RAID 5 array from the four drives, confirm
that you have four Unallocated partitions of equal value similar
to
