NANO-LX EPIC SBC

NOTE:

1.

To reduce the chance of losing data, ALi imposes certain limitations on

the RAID configuration options. Parallel-ATA drives connected on the

same IDE channel cannot be selected as the members of a RAID1

array. Avoid mixing Parallel-ATA and Serial-ATA disk drives in a RAID1

array.

2.

Always use disk drives of the same capacity to create a RAID array. The

excessive capacity of a larger disk drive cannot be utilized because data

stripes are equally distributed across all members of a RAID array.

E.5.3 Create JBOD for Integrated Capacity

JBOD is defined as “Just a Bunch of Drives.” JBOD provides neither performance gains

nor data redundancy.
