3.9  One-Touch RAID Configuration   
The RAID is supported by DS-9600NI-I8 series NVR only. 
Purpose: 
The device supports the RAID storage function. Through one-touch configuration, you can quickly create the disk 
array. By default, the array type to be created is RAID 5. 
Before you start: 
As the default array type is RAID 5, at least 3 HDDs must be installed in you device. And if more than 10 HDDs 
are installed, 2 arrays can be configured.   
Steps: 
1.  Enter the Physical Disk Settings interface. 
Menu > HDD > RAID

3.  Edit the array name in the Array Name text field and click OK button to start configuring array. 
If you install 4 HDDs or more for one-touch configuration, a hot spare disk will be set by default. It is 
recommended to set a hot spare disk for automatically rebuilding the array when the array is abnormal.
