RAID & Non-RAID mix in an AS-608T

Post by konkonkaos »

I read the Raid guide in the http://forum.asustor.com/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=1754 but am still not 100% on RAID options. I am looking at an AS-608T, so can someone clarify please.

Can i have a mix of RAID and non-RAID drives? For example 4 drives in RAID and 4 as normal?

Why you may ask... I have a lot of WD Greens, which are not recommended for RAID, and I can't afford enough WD Reds just yet. So I will work up to it.

Thanks.

Hi konkonkaos,

Yes you can have a mix of RAID and non RAID storage volumes. It is definitely possible to have 4 drives in a RAID configuration and the other 4 as normal storage volumes.

Please let me know if you have any further questions.

Thanks,

Allen
