Thread: RAID 1 to RAID 5

  1. #1

    Default RAID 1 to RAID 5

    Hello!

    It is possible on DSS V6 Lite change from RAID1 to RAID5 without losing data?
    In RAID software mode.

    not possable
    when you go to raid 5 the striping is different
    raid 1 has no stripes, it is a mirror

    you will need to backup your data
    change to raid 5
    then restore data

    In addition to Areca, most Adaptec controllers also supports RAID migration for existing RAID sets. You would need to refer to the Adaptec documentation, to see how it can be done.
