IEI Integration NANO-LX v1.00 - Manual (Page 200)

NOTE:
1. To reduce the chance of losing data, ALi imposes certain limitations on
the RAID configuration options. Parallel-ATA drives connected on the
same IDE channel cannot be selected as the members of a RAID1
array. Avoid mixing Parallel-ATA and Serial-ATA disk drives in a RAID1
array.
2. Always use disk drives of the same capacity to create a RAID array. The
excessive capacity of a larger disk drive cannot be utilized because data
stripes are equally distributed across all members of a RAID array.
E.5.3 Create JBOD for Integrated Capacity
JBOD is defined as “Just a Bunch of Drives.” JBOD provides neither performance gains nor
data redundancy.
