RAID Configuration
Configuring Array and Virtual Disk
RAID (redundant array of independent disks) is a storage technology that combines multiple
disk drive components into a logical unit. A RAID setup stores data over multiple hard disk
drives to provide enough redundancy so that data can be recovered if one disk fails. The DS-
9000HQHI-SH are capable of realizing RAID settings, supporting RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5 and
RAID 10.
The 9000HQHI-SH series can store the data (such as record, picture, log information) in the
HDD only after you have created the virtual disk or you have configured network HDD (refer to
Setting Network HDD). Our device provides two ways for creating the virtual disk, including one-
touch configuration and manual configuration. The following flow chart shows the process of
creating virtual disk.
Note:
Please install the HDD(s) properly and it is recommended to use the same enterprise-level
HDDs (including model and capacity) for array creation and configuration so as to maintain
reliable and stable running of the disks.
One-touch Configuration
You can quickly create the disk array and virtual disk through one-touch configuration. By
default, the array type to be created is RAID 5.
Steps:
1.
Enter the Physical Disk interface by going to Menu > System Configuration > RAID >
