RAID Scanning *1
*1: LinkStation models with
multiple hard drives only
A RAID scan tests your RAID array for errors. If errors are found, they are xed
automatically if possible. If you are using a RAID array, regular RAID scans are
recommended.
Recoverable errors found during standard le operations will be automatically
repaired regardless of whether RAID Scanning is enabled or not.
Status Examples
Recoverable errors Read errors in data or system area of a RAID 1
array
Unrecoverable errors Write errors, RAID management area errors,
partition errors, drive detection failure
