Volume Creation Wizard

The Volume Creation Wizard on the menu bar uses an advanced policy to determine all the
possibilities and volume sizes in the different RAID levels that can be created using the
existing free disk drives. This way, after choosing a RAID level, you may find that some disk
drives are available (free status). It provides:
• Largest capacity for each RAID level from which to choose.
• The fewest number of disks for each RAID level / volume size.
