Creating RAID array
By default, the RAID Disk eld shows No before array creation. This eld 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.
