The <em>Next<\/em> button will then proceed to the <em>Format Volume<\/em> screen where the file system type and compression options may be selected. To view the summary screen, press the <em>Next<\/em> button. Assuming the summary is acceptable the <em>Finish<\/em> button will format the volumes and create the striped volume ready for use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Creating (RAID 0) Volume from the Command Prompt<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>he first step in creating a striped volume using diskpart is to identify the disks to be used in the striped set. This can be achieved using the <em>list disk<\/em> command:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">DISKPART&gt; list disk\n\n  Disk ###  Status      Size     Free     Dyn  Gpt\n  --------  ----------  -------  -------  ---  ---\n  Disk 0    Online        30 GB      0 B\n  Disk 1    Online         8 GB  8189 MB\n  Disk 2    Online         8 GB  8189 MB\n<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>For the purposes of this tutorial we will be creating a striped volume based on a stripe set consisting of disks 1 and 2. The striped volume is created using the <em>create volume<\/em> command combined with the <em>stripe<\/em> and <em>disk=<\/em> directives. In the case of the <em>disk=<\/em> directive a comma separated list of disk numbers to be used in the striped set must be provided. The size of the volume may also be specified using the <em>size=<\/em> directive. Omission of the <em>size=<\/em> option will cause diskpart to create volume such that it is the size of the smallest disk in the striped set. For example, to create a striped volume comprising of disks 1 and 2:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">DISKPART&gt; create volume stripe disk=1,2\n\nDiskPart successfully created the volume.\n<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Having created the striped volume, the <em>list volume<\/em> command may be used to verify the new configuration:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">DISKPART&gt; list volume\n\n  Volume ###  Ltr  Label        Fs     Type        Size     Status     Info\n  ----------  ---  -----------  -----  ----------  -------  ---------  --------\n* Volume 0                      RAW    Stripe        16 GB  Healthy\n  Volume 1     D                       DVD-ROM         0 B  No Media\n  Volume 2     C                NTFS   Partition     30 GB  Healthy    System\n<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>As shown above the new volume is listed as volume 0 and shown as <em>Stripe<\/em>. The volume is also listed as <em>RAW<\/em> because it has not yet been formatted with a file system. This, too, can be achieved within the diskpart tool:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">DISKPART&gt; select volume 0\nDISKPART&gt; format fs=ntfs label=\"My Striped Vol\"\n\n  100 percent completed\n\nDiskPart successfully formatted the volume.\n<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Once formatted, the last task is to assign either a drive letter or mount point to the volume by which it will be accessed:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To assign a drive letter:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">DISKPART> assign letter=E:\nDiskPart successfully assigned the drive letter or mount point.\n<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>To assign a mount point:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">DISKPART> assign mount=\\bigvol\nDiskPart successfully assigned the drive letter or mount point.\n<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Once assigned a drive letter or mount point, the new striped volume is ready for use.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are two way of doing the raid0 Command line and Disk management option.
