2 RAID Function 

What is RAID? 

RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) is a set of technology 

standards for teaming disk drives to improve fault tolerance and performance 

 

Why RAID? 

Increased data protection. If in an unfortunate event where a drive fails, 

the same data is preserved on the mirrored drive. 

Intelligent array controllers can apply different types of RAID for different 

hard disk drives. 

Increased overall network system data capacity. 

Increased I/O read/write efficiency. 

 

Changing the RAID Mode: 

 

The RAID mode should be set before installing the drives and then first 

formatting the drives. 

 

1.  Make sure the power is off. 

2.  Set the RAID switch and select your preferred RAID mode. There are 2 

mode switches on the inner panel of the product. 4 alternate arrays can be 

created through these 2 switches. View the diagram below to see the 

different configuration settings for the RAID switches:
