Configuring Logical Drives
You can combine the HDD (The hard disk drive is herein-
after referred to as a “HDD”.) contained in the Fibre
Channel Storage Unit to construct logical drives with the
capacity and performance required by your application.
1. RAID
By combining multiple HDD into a RAID, you can create
logical drives with greater capacity and higher perfor-
mance than the individual HDD in the logical drive. The
RAID level used by this system is RAID 0 (simple strip-
ing). RAID 0 has the advantage of high throughput,
because data can be accessed simultaneously on multiple
HDD. However, note that RAID 0 uses no redundant parity
bits. Therefore, all of the data on a logical drive is lost if
any of the HDD in the drive fails.
2. Starting the Disk Utility
Use the Disk Utility to configure logical drives.
The Disk Utility is a maintenance program for the Fibre
Channel Storage Unit. It allows you to construct and
release RAID, and to manage the data and logs of the Fibre
Channel Interface Board and HDD.
n
You must log on to Windows 2000 as a member of the
Administrators Group in order to use the Disk Utility.
To start the Disk Utility
Start Windows 2000 and select “Start”
→
“Program (P)”
→
“Sony DMW”
→
“DiskUtility”.
The Disk Utility starts and the main window appears.
The left side of the window shows the current state of the
system with the existing RAID configuration, HDD, and
Fibre Channel Interface Board represented as icons.
3. Creating RAID
When using the Sony Editing Software, two RAID must be
created: one for video data and one for audio data.
Proceed as follows.
(1) Trace down through the tree structure on the left side
of the main window, confirming that there are free
HDD (FreeHDD) under “PC”
→
“Board”
→
“Port”
→
“FC-Loop”.
(2) On the menu bar, select “Disk/RAID (D)”
→
“Con-
struct RAID (C)”.
The Construct RAID dialog appears.
