Deleting Volumes - Buffalo TeraStation WSS 5000 User Manual

Spanned Volumes
The unallocated areas of multiple hard drives are joined to create a single logical volume. This allows various drive
spaces to be combined efficiently. However, data cannot be recovered if even a single drive fails.
Simple Volumes (JBOD)
The internal hard drives of the TeraStation are each used as individual drives. If a hard drive fails, the data on the failed
hard drive cannot be recovered.

Deleting Volumes

An unallocated area on a drive is required to create a volume. If there are no unallocated areas, create one by deleting an
existing volume.
