 Hello everybody! In today's video, I'll show you how to create a software rate in Windows Server. In our previous videos, we explored what is rate, how to build the computer for rate systems and how to create such a system using the BIOS features integrated into your motherboard. And today you'll see how to create a software rate in Windows Server operating system with a graphical interface. So let's begin. Hello friends! If you need to recover deleted data, view or restore removed browser history – Hetman software products will help you. Follow the link in the description, download the necessary program for free, install it and analyze the disk. The utility will show you the data you can recover, so you will be able to view it or get it back. In our channel and blog you will find solutions to any problem, from installing an operating system or configuring it to fixing possible bugs and errors or optimizing mobile gadgets. Our specialists will answer any questions you ask in your comments under the videos or articles. It is very easy to create a software rate array in Windows Server. First of all, you should decide what rate type you want and make sure you have the sufficient number of disks to use with that time. Once you've settled this issue, start configuring the rate system. I'll show you how to create a rate 5 array. But setting up other rate types is very similar, except for certain architectural differences. So this example is quite versatile. Open Disk Management by right-clicking on the start button and choosing this line from the list. With built-in operating system tools, you can create a rate 0, striped volume, rate 1, mirrored volume, rate 5 and JBOD, spanned volume array. To create the rate type you want in Disk Management, right-click on one of the unallocated disks and choose the type you prefer. Click Next, add all necessary disks and click Next again. Assign a drive letter to the new volume and format it. Ready? When the new volume visit closes, there will be a message saying that disks need to be converted, which will erase all data irreversibly. As the disks used in our example are empty, click Yes. If you have any important or unnecessary data on your disk, save it elsewhere before you proceed. After the disks are converted and rate 5 is created, the rescuing process starts. It can be quite long, and the actual time needed to complete all operations depends largely on disk capacity. When rescuing it, finally over, your rate system is ready to use. That method for creating arrayed array is also available in Windows 10, and an alternative solution could be used in the feature known as Storage Spaces. Visit our YouTube channel for another video on creating a software rate system in Windows 10. Check the link below. Also, there are special utilities to help you create and maintain arrayed array, for example Intel RapidStore's technology. I'll give the link to this utility in the description below this video. Download, install and start the application. You can see several tabs there. The Status menu displays the condition of the system and your disks. The Create menu lets you set up a rate system consisting of your disks. Hit Create. Select the rate type. You are free to choose between Flexible Data Protection, Rate 1, 0, 5 and 10. In case you have any doubts, there is a brief description for every type. Select the one you prefer and click Next. Give the volume name and select the disks that will make up your rate. Select the one you prefer and click Next. Configure advanced settings if necessary. I leave default settings for volume size and array allocation. You will see the warning that this action will permanently delete existing data on the following disks. If you have any important data there, save it to another location before you move on. Check the option Proceed with deleting data and click Create Volume. The volume is created. However, the utility informs you that before adding any data there, it's necessary to partition the new volume with Disk Management. That is why you need to open it. Immediately, you are informed that the disk must be initialized for a logical disk manager to access it. Select Partition Style and click OK. Click on the disk and select New Simple Volume. Follow the wizard directions. Now your rate system is ready to use. When you open Windows Explorer, you can see the new disk. The utility shows that the disk is still being initialized. The duration of this process depends on disk capacity. Using this tool makes it much easier to monitor your rate status. And should any of the disks within this system fail, you will notice it at once. This utility lets you see which particular disk has failed by using its serial number. And on every disk there is a sticker with that number. In the Settings tab, you can configure notifications in case of any problems and even specify any mail address to send notifications automatically. And set up automatic rebuild for cases when you need to replace a faulted disk or schedule automatic verify and repair operations. In the Settings tab, let you decide on cleaning cache and use of caching options, verifying and checking any data inconsistencies and more. This is how you can create any of the available software-aid types in Windows Server operating system in an easy and effortless way. That is all for now. Hopefully, this video was useful.
