If you accept these parameters, click the Submit button. The new disk array appears in the Disk Array List on the Information tab.

If you do NOT accept these parameters, use the Express (below) or Advanced (page 48) option to create your disk array.

Express

The Disk Array Express Creation option enables you to choose the parameters for a new disk array by specifying the characteristics you want. With this method, you can create multiple logical drives at the same time you create your disk array. However, all of the logical drives will be the same size and RAID level.

If you prefer to specify the parameters directly, use the Advanced option to create your disk array.

If you are uncertain about choosing parameters for your disk array, use the Automatic option.
