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 can-
not 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. How-
ever, the data on the new drive will be lost.
Raid Level Create Via When Appropriate
RAID 0 Quick Init Creating a RAID 0 on new drives
RAID 0 Migrate* Creating a RAID 0 from one new drive and
one drive with data you wish to preserve
RAID 1 Build* Any time you wish to create a RAID 1, but especially if
you have data on one drive that you wish to preserve
RAID 1,
RAID 10 Clear Creating a RAID 1 or RAID 10 on new drives, or when
you want to ensure that the array contains no data after
creation.
