3.3 Quick installation
The Quick installation function assists you in creating a disk volume quickly. You are limited to specify
the RAID level to 0, 1, 3, 5, 6 and 0+1 and to use volumes detected by the system automatically
instead of adjusting volumes manually. The detected volume depends upon the number of drives and
capacity of each drive installed earlier.
The Quick installation function is an intelligent software program that lists out all the available RAID
levels (0, 1, 3, 5, 6 and 0+1) and capacities. The Quick installation function uses all the available
disk space based on your RAID selections automatically. You may learn that some hard disks are not
utilized (free disk) caused by policies of the Quick installation function:
1. Provide the maximum capacity based on user specified RAID level.
2. Select the least number of disk drives based on the RAID level or volume size.
The Quick installation function is exemplified below with the iR2880-8S-U5 model:
Step 1: Select RAID level after the Quick installation function is selected. Please refer to the figure
below.
