Disk Capacity Truncation Mode:
This RAID subsystem use drive truncation so that drives from differing vendors
are more likely to be able to be used as spares for each other. Drive trunca-
tion slightly decreases the usable capacity of a drive that is used in redundant
units.
Multiples Of 10G: If you have 120 GB drives from different vendors; chances
are that the capacity varies slightly. For example, one drive might be 123.5
GB, and the other 120 GB. This drive Truncation mode Multiples Of 10G
uses the same capacity for both of these drives so that one could replace the
other.
Multiples Of 1G: If you have 123 GB drives from different vendors; chances
are that the capacity varies slightly. For example, one drive might be 123.5
GB, and the other 123.4 GB. This drive Truncation mode Multiples Of 1G
uses the same capacity for both of these drives so that one could replace the
other.
