4.1.7.1 Slicing

ExaSAN RAID slicing overcomes the inherent design of how data is stored on an HDD or RAID
system by subdividing a RAID array into segments, or slices. These slices are effective
hardware partitions of all drives in the array. Each slice is a separate LUN and appears as a
separate volume on the host computer. After slicing, the LUN map must be set for each slice.
