Chapter 13 RAID

This chapter is applicable for DS-7300/8100/9000HUHI-F/N series DVR.
13.1 Configuring Array
Purpose
RAID (redundant array of independent disks) is a storage technology that combines mulple disk drive components into a logical unit. A RAID setup stores data over mulple hard disk drives to provide enough redundancy so that data can be recovered if one disk fails. Data is distributed across the drives in one of several ways called "RAID levels", depending on what level of redundancy and performance is required.
The DVR supports the disk array that is realized by soware. You can enable the RAID funcon on your demand.

The DS-7300/8100/9000HUHI-F/N series DVR support the RAID0, RAID1, RAID5, RAID6 and RAID 10 array types.
Before you start
Please install the HDD(s) properly and it is recommended to use the same enterprise-level HDDs (including model and capacity) for array creation and configuration so as to maintain reliable and stable running of the disks.
