Reconfigure a Volume in Flex-RAID Mode
You can reconfigure a Flex-RAID volume, split it into multiple volumes, specify a different
RAID level, or specify a larger reserved space for snapshots. The process involves these
high-level steps:
1. Delete the volume that you want to reconfigure.
WARNING!
The process of deleting a volume erases all data stored on that
volume. That data cannot be recovered.
2. Create the replacement volume.
3. Specify RAID settings.
These steps are explained in more detail in the following section.
To reconfigure a Flex-RAID volume:
1. If the volume that you intend to delete contains any data that you want to keep, back up
that data.
For more information, see Back Up Data Stored On Your ReadyNAS System on
page 130.
2. Select Volume > Volume Settings from the FrontView main menu.
The Volume Settings screen displays. If your system is configured with multiple volumes,
click the tab for the volume that you want to delete.
In this example, the ReadyNAS system has just one volume, Volume C.
3. Click the Delete Volume button.
4. A dialog box displays asking you to confirm the delete volume command.
