Set up RAID
1. About RAID mode
It has the fastest data read speed but had no protection that all data
will be lost due to one damaged hard drive, which is applicable to
temporary storage and high-speed transmission for data,such as video
editing and other scenes.
Data storage is the most safe and not to be worried to lose data even if
one hard drive is damaged. However, the use ratio for hard drive is just
50% ,thus it is suitable for demanding high-security scenes to store data.
With the both consideration of safety and maximum utilization of
capacity for the data storage, only one hard drive is consumed in
capacity and it is used most as RAID mode.
Security and the promotion of transmission performance are combined
into RAID1 and RAID0, but the use ratio of hard drive is only 50% and
higher demand on data safety is recommended.
Each hard drive is ejected separately and the data stored hard drive can
be more convenient to directly use.
Excellently bind multiple hard drives with different capacity hard drive,
but all data will be lost due to one damaged hard drive , thus it is not
recommended.
CLONE consists of at least two drives storing duplicate copies of the
same data.In this mode, the data is simultaneously written to two or
more disks. Thus, the storage capacity of the disk array is limited to the
size of the smallest disk.
