Creating Logical Drive Freely

The Universal RAID Utility supports "Create Logical Drive - Custom Mode" in which a Logical Drive can be created as

required by specifying the setting items of the Logical Drive closely.

"Create Logical Drive - Custom Mode" allows you to create a Logical Drive by specifying the setting items of the Logical

Drive closely. It can also be used to create Logical Drives of several RAID Levels or create a Logical Drive by using

unused area of Disk Array. In addition, "Create Logical Drive - Custom Mode" enables more than one Logical Drive to be

created at a time.

The benefits of creating Logical Drives by "Create Logical Drive - Custom Mode" are as follows:

 Allows Logical Drives of various RAID Levels (RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, RAID 6, RAID 10, and RAID 50) to be

created.

 Allows selection items (including Capacity, Stripe Size, Cache Mode and Initialize Mode) to be specified closely.

 Allows not only unused Physical Devices but also unused area of Disk Array to be used to create a Logical Drive of

RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, or RAID 6.

 Allows more than one Logical Drive to be created by a set of operations (only RAID Viewer).
