LinkStation User Manual
Descriptions
Configure RAID arrays from this menu. RAID 0 and RAID 1 modes are available.
If RAID is disabled, the drives in the LinkStation will be available as separate
drives.
[Disk Structure]:
To configure a RAID array, check the target drives, select a RAID mode, and
click [Create Raid Array]. To delete the RAID array, select [Delete RAID Array].
Warning: All data is lost when the RAID array is modified. Back up any
important data before changing RAID settings.
[RAID Array Error Detection Response]:
If shutdown is enabled, the LinkStation will automatically shut down when
a RAID 1 error is detected. RAID 0 arrays and drives in normal mode are not
affected by this setting.
The default setting is [Shutdown].
[RAID Array check speed]:
Select the RAID scanning speed from the following:
[High]: ~ 10 hours per TB
[Normal]: ~ 20 hours per TB
[Low]: ~ 100 hours per TB
A RAID scan tests your RAID array for errors. If errors are found, they are fixed
automatically if possible. If you are using a RAID array, regular RAID scans are
recommended.
Recoverable errors found during standard file operations will be automatically
repaired regardless of whether RAID Scanning is enabled or not.
Status

Unrecoverable errors
Examples

array
Write errors, RAID management area errors,
partition errors, drive detection failure
