Prob simple question re disk configuration...

I have searched, including reading teh manual (very painful), but can find nothing that gives me a difinitive answer!

For various reasons I want to be able to set my DUO to a non Raid mode and have simply two drives available NOT mirrored or anything just plain old drives. How do I do it?

Re: Prob simple question re disk configuration...

Hello,

The ReadyNAS is a Raid device! However, you can factory default and choose to create a flex-raid volume, and create two volumes one on each of the drives. Essentially using each drive as just that, an individual drive. Of course in this type of configuration if you lose a drive you will lose all of your data on that drive.

Thanks for replying.
My understanding is that when reset it defaults to Raid. So how do I configure it differently?
