Configuring your ROMB RAID solution with the RAID BIOS Console configuration utility
RAID 10: To configure a RAID 10 array, create multiple RAID 1 drive arrays
(minimum of two) and enable the span option, then select the size of the logical
drive. It is possible to span as many as eight arrays in a logical drive. When looking
at the logical drive, you will not see a “RAID 10” label, but you will see multiple
arrays in the logical drive representing a RAID 10 configuration.
RAID 50: To configure a RAID 50 array, create multiple RAID 5 drive arrays
(minimum of two) and enable the span option, then select the size of the logical
drive. It is possible to span as many as 8 arrays in a logical drive. When looking
at the logical drive, you will not see a “RAID 50” label, but you will see multiple
arrays in the logical drive representing a RAID 50 configuration.
15 Type the size of the logical drive in the Select Size box.
Set the size of the logical drive in Mbytes. The right pane of the logical drive
configuration window will list the maximum capacity that can be selected, depending
on the RAID level chosen.
16 Click Accept to accept the changes. The console shows you a preview of the
configuration.
