This page covers the disk RAID configurations supported for the MK.IO Beam system drive.
Hardware RAID
Hardware RAID has always been supported for the MK.IO Beam system drive. Before 1.14.0 the virtual disk must be created with a 512-byte block size; from 1.14.0 a 4096-byte block size is also supported. Controllers often default to 4096, so check the block size when creating the virtual disk if the server is running an earlier release.
