Silicon Image SATARAID5 Introduction

Creating RAID Groups

As previously discussed, the Silicon Image SATA host adapter supports RAID 0, 1,
5, 10, and JBOD configurations. The selection of the RAID level to be used should
be based upon factors including performance, data security, and number of
drives available. It is best to carefully consider the long-term role of the system
and plan the data storage strategy appropriately.Silicon Image has made the
creation of RAID sets very simple. They can be created either automatically or to
allow the greatest flexibility, manually.
1. Select "Create RAID set"
2. Choose a RAID 0 Striped, a RAID 1 Mirrored, a RAID 5 Parity, or a RAID 10
combination set.
3. Select Automatically or Manually configuration of the RAID Set.
