4.1.2.3 Creating and Deleting an Array
Administrators can choose how best to distribute the available hard disk drives. Once
an array has been created, it can be further administered in the Options section.
Creating an Array
When the RAID controller is first configured, an array needs to be set up. This array tells
the controller how many disks to use and what their function should be.
Follow the steps below to create an array:
1. Select the RAID level from the drop down menu. Available levels are: 0, 1, 5, 6, 0+1
and JBOD.
Note
Each RAID level has a minimum disk requirement. This is shown in
the information to the right of the drop down list. For example,
RAID 5 requires at least 3 drives.
