Storage Configuration &

Expansion

Snap Servers are preconfigured as a single RAID 5, with a single volume

encompassing 80 percent of RAID capacity, and a single share pointing to

the volume. The default storage configuration reserves 20 percent of the

data space for snapshots. If the default configuration is appropriate for your

needs, you need only create the directory structure, set share access

permissions, and (optionally) schedule snapshots.

You may have requirements that demand a different configuration. For

example, if the information on a Snap Server is mission-critical but

infrequently accessed, creating a RAID 1 may be a more suitable

configuration. In another example, some administrators prefer to keep

certain sensitive data, such as financial records, in a separate file system for

added security.
