ezRAID3 Manager GUI Version 1.0
Note: You cannot combine the JBOD and SAFE storage policies. A JBOD volume consumes one
entire drive and a SAFE volume requires one drive for the volume and a second drive for its mirror
twin. You also cannot combine the JBOD and FAST storage policies. JBOD consumes an entire
drive and a Fast volume requires two drives for striping.
If multiple volumes are created for a subordinate node in a cascaded configuration, only the first
volume will be visible to the node above it. Similarly, if multiple volumes are created on a
standalone Storage Processor or the top-level node of a cascaded configuration with a SATA
host connection that is not PM-aware, only the first volume will be visible to the host.
A Look at the Advanced Configuration Wizard
The Advanced Configuration Wizard is an extension of Basic mode that allows you to create
two volumes (virtual drives) on each physical hard drive.
