There are several limitations when creating an IS (RAID 0) volume:
All disks must be either SATA (with extended command set support) or SAS
(with SMART support).
Disks must have 512-byte blocks and must not have removable media.
There must be at least 2 and no more than 8 drives in a valid IS volume. Hot
spare drives are not allowed.
