6 In the Physical Devices panel, select the disk drives you want to use
in the logical drive.
Adaptec Storage Manager prompts you to select the correct number
of disk drives, as shown below. By default, Adaptec Storage Manager
automatically sets the size of the logical drive and maximizes the
capacity of the disk drives you select. (To set a custom size for the
logical drive, see the second bullet below).
● To create a hot spare—Control-click on an available disk drive. A
plus sign (+) appears to indicate that the selected drive will be
designated as a hot spare. (See page 90 for more information.)
● To set a smaller logical drive size—Click Advanced Settings,
then enter a size for the logical drive in the Size GB box. Available
space will remain on the selected disk drives. (See page 74 for
more information.)
● To modify other settings—Click Advanced Settings and
customize the settings as required. (See Fine-tuning Logical
Drives on page 78 for more information.)
