11.2 Disk Array

A disk array is a data storage virtualizaon technology that combines mulple physical disk drives

into a single logical unit. Also known as a "RAID", an array stores data over mulple HDDs 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", based the redundancy and

performance required.

Note

The funcons in this secon are only available for certain models.

11.2.1 Create a Disk Array

The video recorder supports soware-based disk arrays. Enable the RAID funcon as required, and

ensure each HDD capacity is not less than 4 TB. If your device has no more than 16 SATA interfaces,

a disk array can contain no more than 8 HDDs. If your device has 24 SATA interfaces, a disk array

can contain no more than 12 HDDs. Two ways are available for creang an array: one-touch

conguraon and manual conguraon.

One-Touch Creaon

One-touch conguraon creates the disk array. By default, the array type created by one-touch

conguraon is RAID 5.

Before You Start

Install at least 3 HDDs. If more than 10 HDDs are installed, 2 arrays will be created. To maintain

reliability and stability running of the HDDs, it is recommended to use of enterprise-level HDDs of

the same model and capacity.

Steps

1. Go to Storage → Advanced .

2. Check Enable RAID.

3. Click Apply and reboot the device to have sengs take eect.

4. Aer reboot, go to Storage → RAID Setup → Physical Disk .

5. Click One-touch Cong.

6. Edit Array Name and click OK to start conguring.
