Arrays

Array nodes include both RAID arrays and non-RAID disk groups that are indicated by the different icons for RAID arrays

and non-RAID disks. By default, a non-RAID disk group is created when a controller is created. If the controller

configuration specifies the number of disks required, the same number of disks is added to the non-RAID group.

Arrays can be added, modified or deleted depending on the controller configuration and number of disks available.

Array elements contain logical drives and physical disks.
