4 - Adding/Remove Spare Disks

This Add/Remove Spare command is used to assign a hard disk to act as a Spare
Disk. Spare Disks are used to automatically rebuild Redundant RAID arrays (RAID 1,
5, 10) in the case of disk failure. As with creating RAID arrays, disks must be initial-
ized before they can be used as spares. To set a hard disk to act as a Spare Disk, use
the arrow keys to select the target disk from the list of initialized disks, and press
Enter. To remove the Spare Disk setting from a hard disk, highlight the spare disk, and
press Enter.
