Disk Array Configuration
• All supported RAID levels (0,1,5,10) can be created based on the number of
drives that the ATA RAID Controller supports.
• Multiple arrays of supported RAID levels can be implemented on a single
controller based on the number of drives that the ATA RAID Controller supports.
The Disk Array Configuration main display shows the current disk drive
configuration.
• Available Drives reports independent drives (JBOD) not associated with an
array and hot spares.
• Disk Arrays lists any existing arrays along with their member disks.
