In Windows Disk Management, make these volumes as Dynamic Disks and span
them together to make one large disk. Spanning is recommend as oppose to
striping. Striping in this configuration requires more system overhead and will
actually reduce performance. Use Spanning.

6. Alarm Conditions / Degraded RAID Set

There are two possible sources for alarms: one from the enclosure monitors, the
other from the RAID Controller inside the PRO RX.

Enclosure Alarms
(Audible and red indicators):

• Temperature (enclosure

detected over heating
condition)

• Fan (enclosure cooling

fan not operational, could
lead to over heating)

Mute Alarm: Enclosure audible alarm can be muted
by pressing the green mute button above the
indicators, the red indicator remains on until the
condition is corrected.


RAID Controller Alarm
(Audible, Drive Indicators and
RAID Console GUI indicator):

• Degraded RAID Set (one

or more drives not
detected or down)

• Temperature (RAID

Controller detected over
heating)

Mute Alarm: RAID Controller Alarm can be muted by the RAID
Console. Start the RAID Console GUI, go to System Controls > View
Event / Mute Beeper.



The Systems Event Information screen provides a log of events which triggered
the alarm. The example below shows the RAID Set is degraded because IDE
Channel 4 (drive 4) was removed.
