Viewing Array Information
By left-clicking on the Array #, the right pane shows the following information
categories for that array:
RAID mode: (Striping, Mirroring, Mirroring & Striping, Spanning)
Mapping: (similar to physical drive specifications) describing # of cylinders,
heads, and sectors of the array's "virtual" drive as seen by the system
Size: Storage capacity of the array
Status: (Functional, Critical, Offline)
Functional: Means the array is providing full functionality
Critical: Used only in reference to a Mirroring array (RAID 1). A problem
has been detected in one of the drives of the array and the drive has
been taken "offline." However, a "critical" array will continue to save
and retrieve data from the remaining working drive(s). SOYO
recommends replacing the failed drive as soon as possible since a
"Critical" array offers no data redundancy.
Offline: This would appear most commonly within a RAID 0 or Spanning
array. The "Offline" results from a drive having failed which has taken
the entire array "offline." In this case, you have likely lost data.
Fix/replace the drive that has failed, then restore data from a backup
source.
