NOTE
!
The system supports active standby for hard disks, and it is recommended that you reserve at least
one hard disk for backup. When a hard disk in the RAID fails, the system automatically replaces the
faulty disk with the backup disk.
The level of security offered from low to high is JBOD, RAID1 and RAID5. JBOD requires at least one
disk. RAID1 needs two disks of the same capacity, one active and one standby. RAID5 needs at least
three disks of the same capacity.
Only RAID1 and RAID5 can be rebuilt.
Ensure that the backup disk has the same capacity as the active disk.
When a hard disk of a RAID1 or RAID5 array is damaged,
Degrade
is displayed in the
Status
column.
In this case, you need to rebuild the array and replace the faulty disk.
