CLONE mode works the same way as RAID 1, by maintaining a complete

copy of the entire set of data on each drive.

LARGE (Spanned set)

Number of drives: at least 2

Unit capacity: 100% of all drives together regardless of differences in size

Spares: no

Fault tolerance: cannot withstand the loss of any drives without losing data.

However, some data may be recovered as long as the drive(s) carrying the

file system data (boot record, directory, etc.) remain online.

LARGE mode is neither a RAID nor is it a JBOD. It works by declaring the

sum of all available space of the member drives as a single unit, without

striping the data. As each member is filled, new data is stored on the next.
