Click on Maintenance then Raid Settings. In this section you can manage the RAID array and set up your drives. The DiskMaster supports RAID 0 and RAID 1. Two hard drives of identical capacity and make are required. Please Select the RAID mode (RAID 0, RAID 1 or JBOD) then Create Raid Systems.
DiskMaster If only one drive is installed, the RAID configuration will not be available. Creating the RAID system will take several hours, depending on HDD capacity. Do not turn off the power or interrupt the system in any other way during this process! We recommend using the EXT2 file system for optimum performance and functionality. Changing the RAID setup will require you to re-format the drives.
DiskMaster disk can operate independently and is seen as an individual disk. Therefore, the total capacity of JBOD is the sum of the capacities of each disk. This allows the user to add disks until the desired total capacity is reached. Since JBOD provides no performance increase and data protection, it is seldom used. 1.10 How to login To configure your DiskMaster , you will need to use the web browser, enter the IP address and then use the web configuration for further setup.

DiskMaster There are 3 differents RAID mode: • RAID 0= RAID 0, known as disk striping, has generally the best performance, but does not offer any redundancy. In this level, data is broken into small units called sectors, and sectors are distributed across all disks in the array. As it does not provide any data protection, if any disk in the array fails then all data in the array is lost. Such stripes allocation allows to enhance I/O performance.
DiskMaster Raid Settings (Rebuilding) When using RAID 1 and one of the drives has failed, the faulty HDD has to be replaced and the RAID 1 array rebuilt. 1. Login and go to the RAID Setting (Maintenance->Raid Settings) menu to check the disk status. If there is a problem, it will show which drive has to be replaced. 2.
