16. When the Welcome to the New Partition Wizard window
appears, click Next.
17. When the Select Partition Type window appears, select Primary
Partition, and then click Next.
18. When the Specify Partition Size window appears, click next.
19. When the Assign Drive Letter or Path window appears, select
Assign the following drive letter, choose a letter, and then
click Next.
20. When the Format Partition window appears, enter a new
name for the volume table if you'd like. For RAID volumes
up to 16TB, accept the default allocation unit size; for RAID
volumes greater than 16TB, select 8192 from the drop-down
menu. Select Perform a quick format, and then click Next.
21. When the next window appears, click Finish.
Note: If you do not select the quick format option, this process will take
much longer to complete.
22. Repeat steps 15–21 for each remaining "unallocated" disk.
23. Depending on how you configured the RAID groups,
the volumes may already be available to use. If you
created a DVRAID, RAID Level 4, or RAID Level 5 group,
configuration will take much longer. You may check on
the process by double-clicking the RAID group name in the
lower pane of the ATTO Configuration Tool window.
24. Once all the RAID groups have been formatted and finish
building, they are ready to use.
