4.6.1 Creating a RAID 1 Volume

This storage method allows recovery of data if your hard disk fails. To create a RAID 1 volume, you must install two SATA hard disks in your NSA. There are two ways to create a RAID 1 volume:

Click the Migrate button - If you already have a SATA hard disk with a volume and you later install a second SATA hard disk in your NSA, use the Migrate button to convert the existing JBOD volume to a RAID 1 volume.

Click the Create an internal volume button - Use this if there are no existing volumes in your NSA.

4.6.2Migrate Button

Do the following steps to create a RAID 1 volume.

1Once you install a second SATA hard disk in the NSA, the Storage > Volume screen shows the Migrate button.

2Click the Migrate button and you can see the following progress bar. Wait for the RAID 1 volume to be created. This may take quite a while depending on how much data you have in the original volume.
