3. Leave the protection type as Parity (RAID 5) and click Apply. The Storage Pool is shown as being reconstructed.
Figure 18 Storage pool reconstruction
Storage pools with certain RAID types can also be migrated to certain other RAID types by adding additional drives
while data is online. After new drives are added and a RAID type is changed, the Storage Pool will perform RAID
reconstruction to change data protection mechanism and include the new drives in the protection. During this
process, I/O performance may be degraded.
The supported RAID migration paths by changing RAID types include:
t RAID1 (2-drive RAID 10 only) l RAID5 by adding at least 1HDD
t RAID5 l RAID6 by adding at least 1HDD
RAID 1 migration to RAID 5
1. Go to Settings > Storage Pools and click to modify a RAID10 Storage Pool that contains two drives only.
A RAID 10 Storage Pool containing more than two drives cannot be migrated
2. Add one or more disks to the pool by checking the desired disks.
