For server systems, we recommend using a lower array block size. For

multimedia computer systems used mainly for audio and video editing,

we recommend a higher array block size for optimum performance.

• The RAID mode is set to Mirroring by default.

• Not all RAID modes are supported on all

platforms.

The available stripe size values range from 4KB to 128KB. The default

stripe size is optimal (64KB). You must choose the stripe size value

based on the projected drive usage. For low disk usage, select 4KB/8

KB/16 KB. For typical disk usage, select 64 KB. Select 128KB for

performance disk usage.

3. Press <TAB> to move to the Free Disks section.

Highlight the hard disk drives that you want to add in the RAID set,

then press the right arrow key to select. The selected hard disk drives

appear in the Array Disks section. Repeat the process until all desired

hard disk drives are added.
