For server systems, we recommend using a lower array block size. For multimedia
computer systems used mainly for audio and video editing, we recommend a higher
array block size for optimum performance.
• The RAID mode is set to Mirrored by default.
• Not all RAID modes are supported on all platforms. (If the server only has two
HDDs, it only supports RAID 0 and RAID 1 mode.)
