K2 Solo Media Server internal storage system

The storage system on a K2 Solo Media Server includes the following:

Compact Flash — The Compact Flash boot media serves as the system drive. The Windows operating system, applications, and other standard computer software components reside on the system drive.

RAID drives — A K2 Solo Media Server contains 2 disk modules. Media data is written or “striped” across media drives in a continuous fashion, which makes them a “stripe group”. This media stripe group appears as the V: drive to the Windows operating system. Disks are configured as RAID 0, so you cannot remove and replace a disk module while the K2 Solo Media Server is operational. If a disk fails, you lose all media.

Disk controller board — The disk controller board provides the RAID functionality for the internal disks.

RAID 0 — Media drives configured as RAID 0 offer no redundancy. If any single RAID 0 media drive fails, all data is lost on all media drives.
