Duplicate Critical RAID 1 Array

When booting up the system, the RAID utility will detect if there are any inconsistencies between the source and mirror disk drives
of the RAID 1 array. If the software detects that a RAID 1 array has any inconsistencies, the status of the disk array will be
marked as critical and the software will prompt the user to duplicate RAID 1, as to make the mirror disk consistent with the
corresponding source disk.

You can click Yes to synchronize now or click No to synchronize later.

After synchronization has started, a dialog box will show the process and this action can be paused or canceled at any time. If the
synchronization process is cancelled, the RAID will be on the “need-sync” condition and synchronization should be proceeding
again to guarantee the data consistency between sources and mirror disk drives.

A message will pop up when the synchronization process is finished.
