Working with Volumes

By default, the available storage space in your Seagate NAS is configured with one volume.

A volume is storage space that can be made up of one or more disk drives or part of a single

disk drive. You can create more volumes (and shared folders) on your Seagate NAS if you

want to divide the total storage space into smaller amounts that you can allocate for different

uses.

For example, you could create three volumes to hold different types of information:

• Volume A: Business Files

• Volume B: Backup File Storage

• Volume C: Media Files

You can use the same disk drives in multiple volumes providing there is available space on

those drives. For instance, you could use half the space on hard drives 1 and 2 to create

Volume A, and the other half of the space on the same hard drives to create Volume B.

Creating New Volumes

In the NAS Manager, go to Storage > Volumes / RAID. Click Add New Volume. Supply the

following information:

• Volume Name: Enter a name for the new volume.

• Volume Description: Enter a description for the new volume.

• Disk Selection: Select one or more hard disk drives for your volume.
