Self-RAID Creation and Drive Capacity

Self-RAID Creation and Drive Capacity

When it comes to NAS, it is necessary to build a RAID volume so you can use various other functions. 
Many novice users, however, may not understand the significance of RAID, nor be aware of what 
kind of RAID mode would be appropriate for every scenario. Intelligent NAS automatically builds a 
RAID volume, thus ensuring your data’s safety. This data protection means that when data on one 
of your disks is damaged, RAID 1 implement data redundancy which ensures that the transmission 
and processing of data is never interrupted. However, to take advantage of RAID setups, you must 
sacrifice some space for these backups. Please see the illustration below for examples of various RAID 
scenarios.

Tip:

We recommend using disks with the same 

capacity for the same RAID array. This will ensure 

that no space is wasted.

Tip:

Even though some RAID levels and Thecus 

features offer protection, you should always plan 

alternative backups for sensitive data.
