Configuration

You can use the LSI Storage Authority software to create and modify storage configurations on systems with Broadcom controllers.

You can create RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, RAID 6, RAID 00, RAID 10, RAID 50, RAID 60, RAID 1E, and Spanned R1E (PRL-11) storage configurations.

The supported RAID levels differ or might not be supported for some controllers. For more information, see LSI Storage Authority Feature Comparison Matrix.

You can create the following types of configurations:

Simple Configuration specifies a limited number of settings and has the system select drives for you. This option is the easiest way to create a virtual drive.
Advanced Configuration lets you choose additional settings and customize virtual drive creation. This option provides greater flexibility when creating virtual drives for your specific requirements.
