Selecting a RAID Level
To ensure the best performance, you should select the optimal RAID level when you
create a system drive. The optimal RAID level for your disk array depends on a number
of factors:

the number of drives in the disk array
•
the capacity of the drives in the array
•
the need for data redundancy
•
the disk performance requirements
