5 RAID Configuration

If you purchased your RTX430-3QR with drives pre-installed, you do not need to modify the RTX's RAID
configuration. The RTX430-3QR ships with RAID 5 as the default mode.
There are four options for RAID configuration. See Section 2.1 for details on the available RAID levels.
Stop all data transfers before setting or changing RAID types or rebuilding a degraded array. Failure to
do so can result in the loss of data. To set up or change the RAID type, disconnect all data cables and
reboot the RTX enclosure. After the unit has initialized, the LCD will display the RTX's RAID mode and
status.
Use the LCD Display and menu selection buttons to complete these steps.

RAID type and then press Enter to confirm your selection.

on the drives. Ensure all of your data is backed up, then press Enter.
