Creating a RAID Array

 

The HighPoint ATA RAID Management Software supports the following RAID levels:

RAID 0 (Striping)

Data is striped over two selected disks. This level can enhance the system performance.

RAID 1 (Mirroring)

Mirroring mode for data security. (Mirroring refers to the 100% duplication of data from one disk to another)

RAID 0/1 (Mirrored Stripping)

A combination of RAID 1 and RAID 0. Provides high performance and high availability.

JBOD (Volume)

High capacity without redundancy or high performance features. (Expand the capacity of your drive by creating a virtual drive which combines more than one disk capacity for data.)

 

To create a RAID array, select a RAID array mode and open the corresponding Create Array dialog.

 

Use any of the following ways to open the Create Array dialog:

1. Right-click on the device item in the array tree, a pop-up menu will appear. Select the array type you want to create.

2. Choosing the menu Configuration->Create.

3. Click a button on the toolbar.
