| How do I configure RAID under Windows 10? | Feb-14-23 |
| 1. In the Windows search box, type "Storage Spaces".
2. Select Create a new pool and storage space. Windows will check all eligible volumes and list them in the next window.
3. Select the SSDs you want to include in the RAID and click Create Pool.
Warning: All data on the drives you select will be erased, so back up any important data before continuing!
4. After creating a pool, you'll be prompted to configure your new storage space. Type a name for the storage space and select a drive letter. The storage space will appear with this name and drive letter in Windows. You can select either the standard Windows NTFS file system or ReFS, the new resilient file system. If you'll be using mirroring or parity to protect against data loss, we recommend choosing ReFS for its file integrity protection features.
5. Choose a resiliency type. Select Simple (no resiliency) for a large RAID 0 pool of storage that combines the speed of the included SSDs, but offers no protection from a single SSD failure. Select Two-way mirror (RAID 1) to store two copies of your data across two SSDs, or select Three-way mirror (RAID 1) to store three copies of your data across three SSDs. Select Parity (RAID 5) to be protected from a single SSD failure across 4 SSDs. Parity will offer protection with increased size (3/4 of the combined SSD size), but a parity space is noticeably slower than the other options.
6. Choose the size of your storage space. The default will be the maximum available amount of storage you have, which will vary depending on the type of space you create. SImple maximum should be a sum of the sizes of the included SSDs. Mirror should should show the size of a single SSD. Parity should show the combined size of three (of four) SSDs.
7. Select Create storage space when you are done configuring your storage space.
8. The storage space you created will appear as a standard drive under This PC, with the name and drive letter you configured. It appears no different from a normal, physical drive to Windows and the desktop programs you use. |
