STEP23 Select the disk configuration. The options are:
• Disk configuration:
- Do not set disk configuration—If you have created disk
volume configuration or plan to create multiple disk
configurations, select not to initialize the disk drives.
- Single—Each disk is used as a standalone disk. If a disk is
damaged, all data on the damaged disk will be lost.
- JBOD—JBOD lets you combine multiple disks of mixed
capacities into a single logical storage device. The capacity
of the JBOD array is the sum of the total capacities of the
individual component disks (that is, it does not have the
limitation of RAID 1 where you lose some capacity when
using mixed sized disks). JBOD offers no performance
increase compared to the component disks. It has lower
reliability than the component disks, as the failure of a single
disk results, in general, in the failure of the whole array.
- RAID 0—Distributes data across the two disks (called
striping) to give improved speed while utilizing full capacity.
All data on all disks will be lost if any one disk fails.
