4-28  Configuring Your Server

RAID Levels

The record mode enabling the RAID feature includes several levels. Among the levels, the Onboard
RAID Controller (LSI Embedded MegaRAID) supports RAID levels 0 and 1. The number of hard
disk drives required to create a disk group varies depending on the RAID level as shown in the table
below.

Number of required HDDs

RAID level

Min.

Max.

RAID 0

1

3

RAID 1

2

2

NOTE:

 For details of the RAID levels, see "RAID Levels" described

later in this chapter.

Disk Group

A disk group is configured with more than one HDDs.
The allowable number of disk groups is equal to the number of HDDs.

The figure below shows a sample configuration. The three HDDs are connected to the Onboard
RAID Controller (LSI Embedded MegaRAID), creating one disk group (DG).

HDD 1

(36 GB)

HDD 2

(36 GB)

HDD 3

(36 GB)

RAID Controller

Disk Group 0: 108 GB
