This is a basic guide to help you setting up Helios4 NAS with [OpenMediaVault](https://www.openmediavault.org/) (**OMV**). OMV offers a large collection of features that we don't cover here. We invite you to look online for the existing OMV guides or go on the [OMV forum](https://forum.openmediavault.org/).

## Wipe Disk (Optional)
|
|
|
|
If you are using HDD which aren't blank or brand new you might need to wipe them first before being able to setup an RAID array.
|
|
|
|
> Go to **Physical Disks** section.
|
|
|
|
> Select an HDD and click **Wipe**.
|
|
|
|
!!! note
|
|
HDD should be device starting with **/dev/sdX**
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
> Choose **Quick** wipe method.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
> Repeat this step for each HDD you want to use for your RAID array.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Create a RAID array
|
|
|
|
In this guide we chose to create a RAID10 for the following reasons :
|
|
|
|
- A
|
|
- B
|
|
- C
|
|
|
|
You can choose to go for RAID5 or RAID6 but take in consideration that the syncing will take up to 3 times the syncing time of RAID10.
|
|
|
|
> Go to **RAID Management** section.
|
|
|
|
> Click **Create**.
|
|
|
|
> Select RAID level and the devices you want to be used for the RAID array.
|
|
|
|
> Give it a name and press **Create**.
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
> You can see the ongoing re-syncing process and get a finish estimated time.
|
|
|
|

|
While you could carry on with some part of OMV configuration during the RAID re-syncing process, we strongly advice to let this process complete first. You should see the following in the RAID state once re-syncing is complete : **active**.

Whenever you change some settings in OMV, the following banner will appear. You can immediately apply the configuration by clicking **Apply** or you can carry on with your configuration and apply the changes at a later stage.
