  • Page 26: Chapter 4 Managing Storage

    Chapter 4 Managing Storage RAID Arrays TeraStations support many types of RAID. The RAID array type to use depends on how many drives are installed in your TeraStation. TeraStation Default RAID Mode TS1400D RAID 5 TS1200D RAID 1 Notes: • If you change the RAID mode, all data on the array is deleted. This is true for every procedure in this chapter. Always back up any important data before performing actions that affect your RAID array.

  • Page 27: Working With Raid Arrays

    RAID 1 Combines 2 drives into a mirrored array. The available space in the array is the capacity of a single drive. Identical data is written to each drive. If a drive is damaged, data can be recovered by replacing the damaged drive. As long as one drive in the array remains undamaged, all data in the array can be recovered.

  • Page 28: Changing Raid Mode

    Changing RAID Mode To change the RAID mode, first put the drives in JBOD. In Settings, click Drives. Click to the right of "RAID". Click the array to delete. Note: If the "RAID Mode" field is blank, the array is already in JBOD. Proceed to step 7. Click Delete RAID Array.

  • Page 29: Rmm (Raid Mode Manager)

    RMM (RAID Mode Manager) With RMM, you can create or expand a RAID array without erasing the data on the drives. Before using RMM, make sure all inserted internal drives are the same size into the slots. Changing from JBOD to RAID 1 Hard drives that aren't in a RAID array show "Normal".
  • Page 30 The "Confirm Operation" screen will open. Enter the confirmation number, then click OK. Adding a Drive to an Existing RAID Array (TS1400D Only) You can add a drive to a RAID 1 or RAID 5 array. Drives that can be added to the RAID array show "Normal". Note: RMM can be used to expand an array by one drive per operation.
