Setting RAID level

RAID level is set using the RAID level selector
on the rear panel of ACUTA 4/4S. The RAID
level selector consists of two switches. The four
possible combinations of switch position
correspond to the four available RAID settings:
0, 0+1, 5 and 5+spare.

If the RAID level is not matched between the
disk setting and the RAID level selector
setting, the LCD will display the following
two messages alternatively:

(1) “RAID level”

“Unmatched”

(2) “Current: Rx”

“Original: Rx”

Note: Current Rx means the RAID level setting

of RAID level selector

Original Rx means the RAID level setting

of current disks

For example:

Supposed the RAID level selector is R0, but the disk
setting detected from disks is R5, the LCD will
display the following two messages alternatively:

(1) "RAID Level"

"Unmatched”

(2) "Current : R0"

"Original :

R5

"

Solution: At this

situation, RAID

cannot work,

users should choose one of the following
options :

(1) Shut down ACUTA 4/4S and tune the

RAID level selectors to R5.

OR

(2) Re-plug the four disks and re-create the

Array to R0 (But data in the R5 disks will
be lost due to the destructive
initialization )
