By default, the RAID Disk field shows No before array creation. This field is grayed out under the following conditions:

•The disk does not meet the minimum requirements for use in a RAID array.

•The disk is not large enough to mirror existing data on the primary drive.

•The disk has been selected as the Hot Spare for the RAID array.

•The disk is already part of another array.
