Chapter 3: Creating Disk Arrays
www.gateway.com
Overview
Configuring a RAID system requires some planning to make sure that you define
the correct RAID levels and array options. It may be helpful to refer to the
Topology chapter in the Gateway 840 SATA RAID Enclosure User’s Guide.
This chapter will step you through the process to create the disk arrays. You
will also find sections on deleting arrays, expanding arrays, and assigning hot
spare drives. You are then directed to the next chapter for the procedures to
define the logical drives, which makes the drive array(s) available to the
operating system.
This manual assumes you have a basic understanding of RAID concepts and
terminologies.
