Creating RAID Sets

As previously discussed, the Silicon Image SATA host adapter supports RAID 0, 1,

5, 10, and JBOD configurations. The selection of the RAID level to be used should

be based upon factors including performance, data security, and number of drives

available. It is best to carefully consider the long-term role of the system and plan

the data storage strategy appropriately.

Silicon Image has made the creation of RAID sets very simple. They can be cre-

ated either automatically or to allow the greatest flexibility, manually.

1. Select “Create RAID set”

2. Choose a RAID 0 Striped, a RAID 1 Mirrored, a RAID 5 Parity, or a RAID 10

combination set.

3. Select Automatically or Manually configuration of the RAID Set.
