Silicon RAID Introduction
Creating RAID Groups
As previously discussed, the Silicon Image SATA host adapter supports RAID 0, 1,
and Concatenation configurations. The selection of the RAID level to be used should
be based upon factors including performance, data security, and number of drives
available. It is best to carefully consider the long-term role of the system and plan the
data storage strategy appropriately.Silicon Image has made the creation of RAID sets
very simple. They can be created either automatically or to allow the greatest flexibility,
manually.
1. Select "Create RAID set"
2. Choose a RAID 0 Striped, a RAID 1 Mirrored, or a Concatenation combination
set.
3. Select "Automatically" or "Manually configuration" of the RAID Set.
