Policy" for more information.

Does my controller support this feature? See "Supported Features."

The Create Virtual Disk Express Wizard calculates an appropriate virtual disk configuration based on the available space and controller considerations. When
using the Express Wizard, you select the RAID level and size for the virtual disk. The wizard selects a recommended disk configuration for you that matches
your RAID and size selection.

Before creating a virtual disk, you should be familiar with the information in "Considerations Before Creating Virtual Disks". You may also want to review
"Choosing RAID Levels."

If you want to make your own selections for the virtual disk configuration, click Go To Advanced Wizard.

To Create a Virtual Disk Express Wizard: Step 1 of 2
1. Click the radio button to select the correct RAID level.
¡ Select RAID 0 for striping. This selection groups n disks together as one large virtual disk with a total capacity of n disks. Data is stored to the
disks alternately so that they are evenly distributed. Data redundancy is not available in this mode. Read and write performance is enhanced.
NOTE: Renaming a virtual disk generates alert "2159."
