Hello!

I have D5-300 device.

I just configured 3 HDD in RAID-5 and the other 2 in RAID-0.
Then i see in the FAQ that i can't have two groups of raid ( https://www.terra-master.com/uk/faq/cat ... l/?id=4352 ). So, did i make it wrong?

My current configuration in as above:



Thank you,
Best regards.

The FAQ is out of date, we will update it soon. Your current settings are fine, just go ahead.

Thank you TMroy!

I have another answer: I don't expect it can be done, but I ask it anyway (if it can be done, it would be great!)

Can i have multiple instance of configurations? For example: after make a configuration with some HDDs (like the before raid5 + raid0), can i have another set of HDDs with different configuration (ex. RAID0 or RAID1 or RAID5) with different HDDs?

Sorry if I explained myself badly. Ill make an example:

Now i have 5 hdds: A, B, C, D, E.
{A, B, C} = RAID 5
{D, E} = RAID 0

Can I now insert F, G, H, I, J hdds like below?
{F, G} = Raid x
{H, I, J} = Raid y

And then, if I re-insert A, B, C, D, E HDDs, will i be able to read the original data? (A, B, C, D, E RAID 5 + RAID 0)?

I imagine i can make that only if all the info are stored in HDDs and not in device.

Thank you!
Best Regards.

No, you can not do this. The RAID configuration not only for your drives, but also stored in the RAID controller.

Ok Thanks!

(the 3d can be close).

Best Regards.
