A single volume set is created and consumes all or a portion of the disk capacity
available in this RAID set. Define the capacity of volume set in the “Available
Capacity” popup. The default value for the volume set, which is 100% of the
available capacity, is displayed in the selected capacity. use the UP and DOWN
arrow key to set capacity of the volume set and press Enter key to accept this
value. If the volume set uses only part of the RAID set capacity, you can use the
“Create Volume Set” option in the main menu to define additional volume sets.
Stripe Size This parameter sets the size of the stripe written to each disk in a
RAID 0, 1, 10(1E), 5, or 6 logical drive. You can set the stripe size to 4 KB, 8 KB,
16 KB, 32 KB, 64 KB, or 128 KB.
A larger stripe size produces better-read performance, especially if your
computer does mostly sequential reads. However, if you are sure that your
computer performs random reads more often, select a smaller stripe size.
