When a physical disk fails in a RAID 0 virtual disk, there is no method for rebuilding the data.
Selecting physical disks Use the Select Physical Disks screen to select the physical disks to be used for the virtual drive and select the physical disk drive-related properties. The number of physical disks required for the virtual disk varies depending on the RAID level. The minimum and maximum numbers of physical disks required for the RAID level are displayed on the screen. ● Protocol — Select the protocol for the disk pool: Serial Attached SCSI (SAS), Serial ATA (SATA), or NVM Express (NVMe).
● ● ● ● ○ Write Back — The controller sends a write-request completion signal as soon as the data is in the controller cache, but has not yet been written to the disk drive. The Write Back policy may provide faster 'write' performance, but it provides less data security, because a system failure can prevent the data from being written to the disk drive. ○ Force Write Back — The write cache is enabled regardless of whether the controller has an operational battery.
Select the Windows or Linux RAID option to install the appropriate operating system. This option is available only for the software RAID controller, which enabled only if the software RAID controller is supported. NOTE: Windows RAID supports RAID levels 0, 1, 5, and 10, but, the Linux RAID supports RAID level 1 only. After the RAID type is initialized, this option is grayed out in the LCUI. To enable the RAID type, go to BIOS F2 settings, convert the RAID Type to Non-RAID disk. 5.
● ● ● ● Apply local encryption for PERC H730, H730P, H740, H740P, H745, H755, H755N, and H840 RAID controllers. Delete the local encryption key. Encrypt the existing unsecured virtual drives.
