Assigning Array Properties

Once you've create a new array, you are ready to assign properties to the ar- ray.

Caution: Once the array is created and its properties are assigned, you cannot change the array properties using the ACU. You will need to use the Adaptec Storage Manager - Browser Edition. (Refer to Adaptec's User's Guide in the enclosed CD.)

To assign properties to the new array

1.In the Array Properties menu (as shown on the following screen), select an array type and press Enter.

Note that only the available array types (RAID 0 and RAID 1) are displayed on the screen. (Using RAID 0 or RAID 1 requires two drives.)

2.Under the item "Arrays Label", type in a label and press Enter. The label cannot be more than 15 characters.

3.For RAID 0, select the desired stripe size. (Available stripe sizes are 16, 32, and 64 KB - default. It is recommended that you do not change the default setting.)
