Description

technical field

[0001] The present disclosure relates to configuring digital storage devices. In particular, the present disclosure relates to systems and methods for automatic Redundant Array of Independent Disks (RAID) configuration. Background technique

[0002] A Redundant Array of Independent Disks (RAID) combines multiple physical storage devices or partitions thereof into a single logical unit in order to provide redundancy for improved performance, improved availability, or a combination thereof. Configuring storage devices (eg, disks) and creating or modifying RAID is error-prone using existing solutions. Mistakes such as user errors entering static information are not uncommon. Therefore, a model-based approach that minimizes the amount of input and intervention a user needs to provide may be desirable.

[0003] Additionally, difficulties arise when replacing a storage device that is part of a RAID, particularly when the replacement storage device is a different...
