Creating a RAID set

The LSI Logic Embedded SATA RAID Setup Utility allows you to create a RAID 0 or RAID 1 set using two types of configurations: Easy and New.

In Easy Configuration, the logical drive parameters are set automatically including the size and stripe size (RAID 1 only).

In New Configuration, you manually set the logical drive parameters and assign the set size and stripe size (RAID 1 only).
