2. On the RAID Configuration screen, set the RAID storage space as JBOD,

RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, RAID 6, or RAID 10 — see Appendix C: RAID

Basics for a detailed description of each.

3. Specify a RAID ID.

4. If this RAID volume is meant to be the Master RAID volume, tick the Master

RAID checkbox.

NOTE

In a multiple RAID configuration, one RAID volume must be designated as the

Master RAID volume. The Master RAID volume will store all installed modules. If

the Master RAID is changed to another location (i.e. assigning volume 2 to be

the Master RAID volume after volume 1 had been previously assigned), then all

modules must be reinstalled. In addition, all system folders that were contained

on the Master RAID volume will be invisible. Reassigning this volume to be the

Master RAID will make these folders visible again.

5. Specify a stripe size — 64K is the default setting.

6. Specify the percentage allocated for user data by drag the horizontal bar.

The remaining space will be made available for iSCSI.

7. Selected the file system you like to have for this RAID volume. The selection

is available from ext3, XFS and ZFS.

NOTE

．Select ZFS file system while snapshot is needed. It is only one ZFS file system

allowed to be created per system.

．ZFS file system is only accessible by CIFS/SMB, not for AFP and NFS users.

．XFS file system is not support folder quota feature

8. Press Create to build the RAID storage volume.
