9.2 Disk Array
A disk array is a data storage virtualization technology that combines multiple physical disk drives
into a single logical unit. Also known as a "RAID", an array stores data over multiple 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 functions in this section are only available for certain models.
9.2.1 Create a Disk Array
The video recorder supports software-based disk arrays. Enable the RAID function as required, and

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 creating an array: one-
touch configuration and manual configuration.
