Buffalo TS-WX2.0TL/R1 [34/66] Normal mode ts wxl 1d series default settings

TeraStation Setup Manual 33

• RAID 1 mode (TS-WXL/R1 Series Default Settings)

Uses 2 hard drives as one array. You can use up to 2 arrays on TS-XL, TS-XEL and TS-RXL Series. The space you can use is 1

hard drive's space for each array. The same data is written to 2 drives at once. If a drive is damaged, data can be recovered

by replacing the damaged hard disk. If both drives in an array are damaged, data cannot be restored. You can create an

array and designate another drive as a hot spare (which will boot automatically when one of the hard drive fails) in TS-

XL, TS-XEL and TS-RXL TeraStations. You can use 2 drives to create a RAID 1 array, use anther drive as a hot spare, and use

another as a regular drive, all at once.

• RAID 0 mode

This mode uses multiple hard drives as a single array. The disk space you can use is the total space of all hard drives used.

This is the fastest of the TeraStation’s RAID modes. If any hard disks are damaged, you cannot recover data.

• Normal Mode (TS-WXL/1D Series Default Settings)

This mode uses the hard drives inside the TeraStation as individual hard disks. The disk space you can use is the total

space of all hard drives in the TeraStation. If a hard disk is damaged, you cannot recover data from that drive.

Note: During a recovery, the TeraStation’s front LED display shows “RAID ARRAY* Resyncing” and le transfer speeds are

slower than usual until the RAID array is rebuilt.
