Drive Format
•
My Book World Edition is a single-drive configuration.
•
My Book World Edition II is a dual-drive system that is pre-configured to RAID 1
(Mirrored) mode for extra data protection. If one drive fails in RAID 1, the system
still runs, and your data is preserved so you can replace the failed drive and
restore the system. My Book World Edition II also supports RAID 0 (Striped)
mode for maximum capacity and accelerated performance. For more information,
including instructions on changing the RAID configuration for My Book World
Edition II, see “Volumes and RAID Management” on page 124.
