1.8.2 Notes on setting up a RAID System

Note the following points when setting up a RAID System.
•
The number of Solid State Drives required varies in each RAID level.
RAID level
RAID 0
RAID 1
•
It is recommended to install Solid State Drives with the same model number.
•
If you intend to install the OS to the RAID System, the process from RAID configuration to OS installation
can be easily completed by using the EXPRESSBUILDER. If you wish to install the OS manually, use a
RAID System Configuration utility (WebBIOS). The utility can be run during POST which starts
immediately after the server is turned on. For details on the procedure of configuring a Logical Drive, refer
to Chapter 2 (4. RAID System Configuration) in "Maintenance Guide".
