In order to enable immediate use, your Freecom Dual Drive Network Center is pre-formatted
and configured as RAID 0. You therefore have the maximum storage space available. If you
value maximum data security, we recommend the configuration as RAID 1. In the "RAID 1"
mode, your hard disks will be mirrored, so that only half the maximum storage space will be
available. If one hard disk fails, your data can then be restored from the second hard disk.
Further information on hard disk configuration can be found in Section "Configuration of
the hard disks" of this manual.
