Configuring RAID
You can switch between the X-RAID2 Expandable Volume mode and the RAID 0/1/5/6 Flexible
Volume mode only if you want to change the default configuration. It is not necessary to perform
this procedure every time you boot up the system. The device remains in the selected mode until
explicitly changed.
To reconfigure your RAID setup:
1. Power off the device.
2. Use a paper clip or push pin to gently press in and hold the reset switch, power on the unit and
hold the reset switch for 30 seconds while powering on the device until the Boot Menu prompt
appears on the OLED, then release the reset switch.
3. Push the Backup button on the front panel to scroll through the menu to the Factory Default
option.
4. Press the recessed reset button at the back to confirm the menu selection and proceed to that
option.
The system will reset to the factory default settings, and erase all the data on the disks.
5. Open RAIDar. RAIDar will prompt you to click Setup. The ReadyNAS Volume Setup screen
displays.
6. Select either the Expandable Volume (X-RAID2) or the Volume (RAID 0,1,5, 6) radio
button and click Create Volume Now. The volume and initialization process begins.
Warning: Performing a Factory Default will erase all your data on the hard disks. To
preserve you data, do a full backup before using the Factory default option.
Warning: If no action is taken within 10 minutes, the system defaults to X-RAID2
with 10 GB reserved for snapshots.
