Page 195 RAID 1 Mirroring Disk Volume RAID 1 duplicates the data between two hard drives to provide disk mirroring. To create a RAID 1 array, a minimum of 2 hard drives are required. The storage capacity of a RAID 1 disk volume is equal to the size of the smallest hard drive.
Page 196 RAID 6 Disk Volume The data are striped across all the hard drives in a RAID 6 array. RAID 6 differs from RAID 5 that a second set of parity information is stored across the member drives in the array. It tolerates failure of two hard drives.
Page 197: Raid Management
RAID Management You can perform online RAID capacity expansion (RAID 1, 5, 6, 10) and online RAID level migration (single disk, RAID 1, 5, 10), add a hard drive member to a RAID 5, 6, or 10 configuration, configure a spare hard drive (RAID 5, 6, 10) with the data retained, enable Bitmap, recover a RAID configuration, and set a global spare on this page.
Page 198 Click “Change” for the first hard drive to be replaced. Follow the instructions to proceed. Tip: After replacing the hard drive, the description field shows “You can replace this drive”. This means you can replace the hard drive to a larger one or skip this step if the hard drives have been replaced already.

Page 200 Click “OK” to proceed. The NVR beeps and starts to expand the capacity. The process may take from hours to tens of hours to finish depending on the drive size. Please wait patiently for the process to finish. Do NOT turn off the power of the NVR.
Page 201 Tip: If the description still shows “You can replace this hard drive” and the status of the drive volume says “Ready”, it means the RAID volume is still expandable. Migrate (Online RAID Level Migration) During the initial setup of the NVR, you bought a 250GB hard drive and configured it as single disk.
Page 202 Go to “Storage Manager” > “RAID Management”, click “Migrate” from the “Action.” Select one or more available drives and the migration method. The drive capacity after migration is shown. Click “Migrate”.
Page 203 Note that all the data on the selected hard drive will be cleared. Click “OK” to confirm. When migration is in process, the required time and total drive capacity after migration are shown in the description field. The NVR will enter “Read only” mode when migration is in process during 11%–49% to assure the data of the RAID configuration will be consistent after RAID migration completes.
Page 204 formatted as single disk volume on the NVR, you can add this hard drive to the RAID 5 or RAID 6 configuration. You are recommended to use hard disk drives of the same storage capacity for the RAID configuration. Select the RAID 5 or RAID 6 configuration on the “RAID Management” page and click “Add Hard Drive”.
Page 205 The original data on the RAID 5, 6, or 10 disk volume will be retained. After the configuration completes, the status of the disk volume will become “Ready”. Note: A hot spare drive must be removed from the disk volume before executing the following action: Online RAID capacity •...
