4. Select the desired file system for the new, combined volume. (Ext3 is recommended for
enhanced data protection.)
5. Click Create RAID System.
RAID creation will proceed in two phases. First, the system will perform initial RAID setup,
and then it will automatically reboot. Once the MeeBox has finished rebooting, the system
will format both hard drives to finish RAID creation. (After the reboot, you can return to the
RAID management page to monitor the progress of the second phase.) The entire process
can take up to an hour or more, depending on the size of the drives. Please do not use or
turn off your MeeBox during this time.
When the system has finished creating the RAID array, you will be able to access the
combined volume in the same way you accessed the original, single-drive volume.
Network shares will continue to be accessible at network address \\meebox on Windows,
and at smb://meebox on Macintosh. When using FTP, the combined volume is accessible
as the ide3 directory. When using SFTP, the combined volume’s path is /mnt/ide3.
