Figure 3.29
Stripe RAID Array Created
As you can see from the above screen shot a striped array with two SATA disks has
been created, while the other two disks are allocated as Free Disks.
Similarly, to create an array with three or more disks, simply make sure to add the
number of disks that you want to use in the array during creation.
You can also “extend” the size of an existing striped array but that requires that you
use morphing— the ability to convert from one RAID array to another as described in
“Morphing From One RAID Array to Another” on page 72
