3.1 Selecting a RAID Level
To ensure the best performance, you should select the optimal RAID
level when you create a system drive. The optimal RAID level for your
disk array depends on a number of factors:
· The number of drives in the disk array
· The capacity of the drives in the array
· The need for data redundancy
· The disk performance requirements
Note:
The SCSI 320-0 controller supports a maximum of 15
physical drives.
