3ware Escalade ATA RAID Controller Installation Guide Determining your configuration Caution: Configuring a disk array writes format-type data onto its member disks and overwrites all the files on those disks. Be sure to back up data that requires retention. • All supported RAID levels (0,1,5,10) can be created based on the number of drives that theATA RAID Controller supports. • Multiple arrays of supported RAID levels can be implemented on a single controller based on the number of drives that the ATA RAID Controller supports. The 3ware Disk Array Configuration main display shows the current disk drive configuration. • Available Drives reports independent drives (JBOD) not associ- ated with an array and hot spares. • Disk Arrays lists any existing arrays along with their member disks. 26 www.3ware.com 3ware Disk Array Configuration Utility Figure 5. Disk Array Configuration Main Display, RAID 1 Example Throughout the utility (see Figur e5) use the Up and Down arrow keys to navigate, Enter to select the disks or buttons and F1 for context sensitive help. Toggle Hot Spare verbiage is black when the cursor is over a drive that can be specified as a hot spare and gray when hot spare cannot be specified. If you've made mistakes and want to start over, pressing F6 will return your starting values. Pressing Escape will exit the configuration utility as well as abandon your changes. Pressing F8 will save your changes and exit the utility. www.3ware.com 27
