Mounting locations for hard disk drives in the RAID5 system
Unlike a RAID1 system, hard disk drives can only be installed on the front in the removable
drive bay for a RAID5 system.
Note
The replacement of a hard disk drive with removable drive bay and in the RAID system can
be performed without shutting down the device.
The new hard disk drive can be integrated into the RAID5 system at operating system level
with the RAID software.
Synchronization may take several hours, depending on system load.
The following figure shows an RAID5 system with three hard disk drives as an example and
a hot spare hard disk drive in the removable drive bay.
