If the disk that you added was not previously formatted, the system uses the disk in one of the following
ways:
•
If you are adding the disk to a system that uses X-RAID, the system automatically determines
whether the disk is used for protection or storage. The new disk is incorporated in the background
while you continue to use your system.
•
If you are adding the disk to a system that uses Flex-RAID, the disk becomes available for use. You
use the local admin page to manually configure the new disk.
For more information about X-RAID, Flex-RAID, and using the local admin page, see the ReadyNAS
OS 6 Software Manual, which is available at
Replace a Disk
If your volumes use a protected RAID configuration, your system can recover from the failure of a disk.
When you replace the failed disk, the system rebuilds the volume using the new disk and no data from the
volume is lost.
Each disk tray includes a Fault LED that lights solid red when its disk fails. You can also use the local admin
page to set up email alerts that notify you when a disk fails. In addition, the local admin page provides
information about the failed disk.
