Hi,

we have 6 hard drives. We had previously 4 hard drives, but when we try add new two hard drives, RAID was changed from RAID5 to RAID0. 

Now we can't change to RAID5, like you can see in pic's. 

I don't know if i doing something wrong...

Thanks

Pedro

We had previously 4 hard drives, but when we try add new two hard drives, RAID was changed from RAID5 to RAID0. 

So, you chose the wrong RAID level when you reconfigured your array to add the disks. The ONLY way to change it from RAID 0 to RAID 5 now is to add another new disk. If you don't have any available slots on the server, then you can't - you can't reduce the size of an array or number of disks in an array; you would need to backup, delete the VD, create RAID 5, restore.
