Chapter 5 – Configuration
3.x.1 ~
RAID level
3.x.5
Select from RAID 5, RAID 3, RAID 1, RAID 0 and RAID 0+1.
3.x.x.1
Slot number
Specify the number of disks to be included in the array.
3.x.6 ~
3.x.9 Slice
1~4
Each array can be partitioned into up to 4 slices. Input the size in MB of each slice
or select Delete to delete the slice. All RAID capacity is assigned by default to
Slice 0. If the user reduces the size of Slice 0, all excess capacity will be assigned
automatically to Slice 1, and so on through the list. Slices (partitions) are created in
this way. If no capacity is allocated to a slice, that slice will not be created.
3.x.A
Erase
Select to erase an existing array. This item is not shown when the array is not yet
setup.
3.5
Write Cache
Enable / Disable buffer for write operations to memory. The use of cache memory
when writing to the controller will increase overall performance. The size of the
available cache writing space is defined by the size of the SODIMM memory
module installed. See Chapter 2, Installation for more information on the memory
module specifications.
A slice must be mapped to a LUN before it can be accessed. After creating
slices, users should go to the Edit Chan Menu to map each to a LUN.
