Next, we set a size for this logical drive based on the maximum available
capacity.
You can set logical drive size in terms of either physical capacity or logical
capacity. Logical capacity takes into account overhead for fault tolerance,

capacity for the first logical drive somewhere below the maximum to leave
space for additional logical drives.

Capacity(GB) definition field, then type a numeric decimal value
for the physical or logical capacity to be used in this logical
drive.

the desired definition field and change its value as described
earlier.

the Add Drive button, then press Enter with Add Drive selected

delete the logical drives you’ve set up and define new ones. RAID EzAssist
