The following table describes the labels in this screen.
Note: Once you create the first volume on the NSA, it is recommended to restart the
NSA for better performance.
7.3.1 Volume Status
You (the administrator) can see the status of a volume in the Status or Storage
screens.
The NSA has the following classifications for the status of a volume:
• Healthy if all disks in the volume are OK and the file system is functioning
properly.
• OK means the USB connected device is functioning properly.
• Resync when you create a RAID volume.

LABEL DESCRIPTION
Volume Name Type a volume name from 1 to 31 characters. To avoid confusion, it is
highly recommended that each volume use a unique name.
Acceptable characters are all alphanumeric characters, " " [spaces],
"_" [underscores], and "." [periods].
The first character must be alphanumeric (A-Z 0-9).
The last character cannot be a space " ".
For an external volume, type a volume name from 1 to 32 single-byte
(no Chinese characters allowed for example) ASCII characters. The
name cannot be the same as another existing external volume.
JBOD Use this if you want maximum storage capacity and/or you have other
means of protecting your data. JBOD is the only option if you only
have one disk installed. With two disks, you can choose to create a
JBOD volume on one of the disks or both.
RAID 0 Use this if you want maximum speed for your disks, and/or you have
other means of protecting your data. This is only available when you
have two hard disks installed.
RAID 1 Use this if you want to mirror all data on one disk to the other disk.
This is only available when you have two hard disks installed.

installed.
