Create Jbod For Integrated Capacity - IEI Technology KINO-LX User Manual

E.4.3 Create JBOD for Integrated Capacity
JBOD is defined as "Just a Bunch of Drives." JBOD provides neither performance gains
nor data redundancy.
WARNING!
All data previously stored on the member drives of a RAID configuration is
destroyed during the RAID initialization process. If "used" drives are used to
create a RAID array, make sure the data has been moved or backed up
before creating a RAID array out of the disk drives.
Step 1: Select "Create JBOD for Integrated Capacity". Use the arrow keys to highlight
Create JBOD for Integrated Capacity and press E
on the Drive Menu where the member drives to be included in the JBOD array
can be chosen.
Step 2: Select RAID array drive members. Use the space bar to select members of the
RAID array. The flashing cursor changes to a lower case 's' once any of the
connected disk drives has been selected. Follow the same method to select
another member drive.
Step 3: Confirm. The Create RAID 0 (Y/N) confirm box appears. Press Y.
Step 4: Name the array. Enter a nickname for the created array. Upper and lower case
alphabetic, numeric, space, and underscore characters are all applicable for
naming an array
