Configuring RAID

My Book Studio Edition II is preformatted for HFS+ (Journaled) and is preconfigured
for RAID 0 (Striped) mode for maximum capacity and accelerated performance. This
product also supports RAID 1 (Mirrored) mode for data protection which dedicates
half the capacity to mirror the data on both drives A and B.
