SmartStor NS2300N Product Manual
126
• RAID 0 Volumes go offline after a disk drive failure. A RAID 0 Volume cannot
be rebuilt. All data on the Volume is lost.
Additional Details about Rebuilds
• The Rebuild takes several minutes, depending on the size of your disk
drives.
• During a rebuild, you can access your folders on the SmartStor.
• When you replace the failed disk drive with a new disk drive, the new disk
drive becomes a Free Drive.
Responding to an Invalid RAID Volume
The SmartStor considers a RAID Volume invalid when the RAID Volume was
created by a different SmartStor. However, the RAID Volume itself remains
functional and the data on it is safe.
This condition could happen when you:
• Move the disk drives from one SmartStor to a different SmartStor.
• Remove the disk drives in order to send your SmartStor for service.
When the SmartStor’s memory does not recognize the RAID Volume, so PASM
displays the RAID Volume as invalid. See Figure 3.
Use the Recover function to validate the RAID Volume. The Recover tab is only
active when an invalid RAID Volume is present and can be recovered.
