Although drives of different sizes may be used in the array, Quick
Create will only operate upon drives of the same physical size.The
number of physical drives in the SAS RAID controller determines
the Raid Levels that can be implemented with the RAID set. You
can create a RAID set associated with exactly one volume set. The
user can change the Raid Level, Capacity, Initialization Mode, and
Stripe Size. A hot spare option is also created, depending on the
exist configuration. Tick on the “Confirm The Operation” check box
and click on the “Submit” button in the “Quick Create” screen, the
RAID set and volume set will start to initialize.
