Stripe Size: Species the size of single data block on the virtual disk. In
general, a larger stripe size is recommended for applications requiring large
data transfers such as audio, video, and graphics. A smaller stripe size is
better for applications with content in much smaller size, such as e-mails and
documents.
Conguration options: [32K] [64K]
Gigabyte Rounding: In the event of a single physical disk failure in a RAID
1 virtual disk, Gigabyte Rounding allows the replacement physical disk to be
of a size slightly smaller than the existing physical disk. The capacity of the
rebuilt virtual disk equals to the size of the smaller physical disk included in
the RAID 1 array. The conguration options represent the tolerance value of
drive capacity difference.
Conguration options: [None] [1G] [10G]
Name: Enter a name with 1–10 letters (no special characters) for the RAID
array.
