System RAID Setting

* RAID 0
* RAID 1
* JBOD
* BIG

RAID 0: Provides improved performance and additional storage, but no fault tolerance.

RAID 1: Provides fault tolerance from disk errors and failure.

JBOD: JBOD stands for Just a Bunch of Disks. The controller treats each drive as a stand-alone disk, therefore each drive is an independent logical drive. JBOD does not provide data redundancy.

BIG: To extend existing partitions onto other empty partitions or hard disks to gain extra contiguous disk space.
