3.3 Configuración del modo RAID

The ORICO 9928RU3 supports multiple RAID modes configured via DIP switches located on the rear panel. Important: Always back up your data before changing RAID modes, as this process will erase all data on the drives.

• PM (Port Multiplier): Cada unidad se reconoce como un disco independiente.
• RAID 0 (distribución en bandas): Combines drives for maximum speed and capacity, but offers no data redundancy.
• RAID 1 (duplicación): Duplicates data across drives for redundancy, protecting against single drive failure. Capacity is limited to the smallest drive.
• SPAN (JBOD - Just a Bunch Of Disks): Concatenates drives to form one large volume without performance or redundancy benefits.

Refer to the diagram below for DIP switch settings for each RAID mode:
