Technical rules for RAID configuration
The following notes describe information that you must consider when you configure RAID.
For software RAID, JBOD and RAID levels 0, 1, 5, and 10 are supported.
Onboard NVMe configuration supports JBOD and RAID levels 0, 1, 5, and 10 when Intel NVMe SSDs are used.
- Both VROC Intel-SSD-Only and VROC Premium support JBOD and RAID levels 0, 1, 5, and 10, with the former using Intel NVMe drives while the latter using non-Intel NVMe drives.
Bootable volumes must be in the same volume management device (VMD) domain.
Data volumes can be deployed across VMD domains.
RAID volumes across CPUs are not supported.
VROC must be configured by referring to the following VMD domain matrix.
