6.7 Security Function
The “Security Function” on the new firmware supports Self-En -
crypting Disks (SED) for protection of data against loss or theft of
SEDs. Protection is achieved by the use of encryption technology
on the drives. The McRAID storage management allows SED keys
to be created and managed as well as create/delete RAID sets. The
following section provides the “Security Function” instructions to
perform the custom configuration tasks. All SED functions are inte -
grated into the intuitive and user friendly McRAID manager inter-
face for easy access. Choose this option from the main menu and
then perform the operations listed below.
6.7.1 Create SED RAID Set
To create a SED RAID set, click on the “Create SED Raid Set”
link. A “Select The Drive For SED RAID Set” screen is displayed
showing the SED drive(s) connected to the current controller and
enclosures. Click on the selected physical drives within the cur-
rent RAID set. Enter 1 to 15 alphanumeric characters to define a
unique identifier for a SED RAID set. The default RAID set name
will always appear as “Raid Set #”. Tick on the “Confirm The
Operation” check box and click on the “Submit” button on the
screen; the RAID set will start to initialize. If you have available
disk member, you can repeat above procedures to define another
RAID sets. The Max 128 Volumes is the default mode for RAID
