## Express Array Configuration

The Express Configuration button from the Array Management Individual Configuration page displays novice-level array configuration setting options. When you choose to express-configure an individual array, you can type a text description of the array, add disk drive trays to an existing storage profile, or change the characteristics of an existing profile such as array type, raid settings, read-ahead, and segment size.

When you change an existing profile to a new profile, the existing profile's settings (such as cache settings) are copied to the new profile and the existing profile is deleted. You can select the number of drives from a tray to add to the profile.

Caution - When you change an existing profile, data found on any detected volumes is deleted.
