the RAID set in this screen.
3.7.3. Volume Set Function
A volume set is seen by the host system as a single logical device; it is organized in a RAID level within
the controller utilizing one or more physical disks. RAID level refers to the level of data performance and
protection of a volume set. A volume set can consume all of the capacity or a portion of the available
disk capacity of a RAID set. Multiple volume sets can exist on a RAID set. If multiple volume sets reside
on a specified RAID set, all volume sets will reside on all physical disks in the RAID set. Thus each volume
set on the RAID set will have its data spread evenly across all the disks in the RAID set rather than one
volume set using some of the available disks and another volume set using other disks.
The following is the volume set features for the SAS RAID controller.
3.7.3.1.
Create Volume Set (0/1/10/3/5/6)
To create a volume set, follow the below steps:
1. Select the "Volume Set Function" from the main menu.
Volume sets of different RAID levels may coexist on the same RAID set and up to 128
volume sets per controller.
Up to 128 volume sets can be created in a RAID set.
The maximum addressable size of a single volume set is not limited to 2TB, because the
controller is capable of 64-bit LBA mode. However the operating system itself may not
be capable of addressing more than 2TB.
