• A RAID 0 or RAID 1 configuration requires at least two hard drives. If more than two hard
drives are configured, the total number of hard drives must be an even number.
• A RAID 5 configuration requires at least three hard drives. (The total number of hard drives
does not have to be an even number.)

(Note) When a RAID configuration is built across the SATA 3Gb/s channels, the system performance of
the RAID configuration may vary depends on the devices are connected.
