Thecus raid

[kilavan]

when choosing any raid function or JBOD on my THECUS. Will it format my harddrive? there is no way to do Raid or JBOD without formatting?

i can understand that with raid its likely to format, because of its way of storing data... but even JBOD need to be formattet?

Please someone must know this answer, its pretty simple,


All i need to know is if i enable JBOD on my thecus N3200PRO will it then format my harddrive ?

If you plug a raid set into a N7700 (from another Thecus/Compatible Linux), it should see it just fine.

If you have to configure it as a raid, it will reformat it.

For a JBOD, I don't know about reformatting. I hope not

Why not just plug the drives in as usb drives? You have ports for up to 6 drives
