Getting Started 6. By default, if your network has a DHCP server, the storage system obtains its IP address from that server. If your network does not have a DHCP server or if the storage system is directly attached to your computer, the default IP address and subnet mask are used. The default IP address is 192.168.0.101, and the default subnet mask is 255.255.255.0. To accept the default settings, click Next. Otherwise, specify the desired settings and then click Next. When you click Next, the Disk Configuration page displays. The options that display on this page vary, depending on the number of hard disks currently installed in the system. Caution: RAID 0 and linear disk configurations do not offer any data protection. If you lose a hard disk, data loss occurs. 7. If you want to add or remove hard disks, do so one at a time and click Scan after each action. Note: It is strongly recommended that you install all the hard disks you want to use in the storage system at this time, since changing the number of hard disks later can require disk reconfiguration and possible data loss. To accept the default disk configuration, which provides the best level of data protection available for the number of hard disks currently installed, click Next. By default, a linear disk configuration is used for a single hard disk, RAID 1 is used for two hard disks, and RAID 5 is used for three or four hard disks.
