Assigning Array Properties
Once a new array is completed, you can assign properties to the array.
*Caution:
Once the array is created and its properties are assigned, and you cannot
change the array properties using this utility.
To assign properties to the new array:
1.
In the Array Properties menu (as shown in the screen below), select an array type
and press
Enter
. Only the available array types will be displayed on the screen.
(*RAID 0 or RAID 1 requires two drives.)
2.
Under the item "
Arrays Label
",
type in a label and press <
Enter>
. (
*Note:
The label shall not be more than 15 characters.)
3.
For RAID 0, select the desired stripe size. (*Note: Available stripe sizes are
16, 32, and 64 KB. 64K is default. Please
do not
change the default setting.)
4.
The item:
"Create RAID via"
allows you to select between the different ways
of creating methods for RAID 0 and RAID 1.
The following table gives examples of when each is appropriate.
(*Note:
If you select Migrate for RAID 0, or Build for RAID 1, you will be asked
to select the source drive. The contents of the source drive will be preserved.
However, the data on the new drive will be lost.)
