7. Repeat the procedures for the other logical drives and arrays.
Note
It is not necessary to define multiple logical drive of same RAID level.
You can partition these logical drives the same way you partition a real
disk when you install the operating system.
8. Select Exit to leave this menu.
9. Select Yes to save the changes.
Figure 67 shows an example completed array definition which includes two
logical drives: one 400MB RAID-5 array and one 2925MB RAID-1 array.
