    If disk drives of different capacities are used, there will also be unused capacity on the larger drives. Because RAID 0 does not offer Fault Tolerance, meaning that you cannot recover your data after a disk drive failure, we do not recommend a RAID 0 Volume for your unit.
  • Page 79: Raid 5 - Block Striping With Distributed Parity

    RAID 1 Volumes on this unit consist of two disk drives. If you want a mirrored RAID Volume with more than two disk drives, see RAID 10 – Mirror / Stripe for details. RAID 5 – Block Striping with Distributed Parity RAID 5 organizes block data and parity data across the disk drives.
  • Page 80: Choosing A Raid Level

    The data capacity RAID 10 Volume equals the capacity of the smallest disk drive times the number of disk drives, divided by two. In some cases, RAID 10 offers double fault tolerance, depending on which disk drives fail. RAID 10 Volumes on this unit consist of four disk drives. Because all of the available disk drives are used for the RAID Volume, you cannot set up a spare drive with RAID 10.
