How do I do if I want to remove my RAID system? I have format my external eSata disk. But under "RAID" the status still is "RAID system is corrupt".
I don't want to use RAID anymore, I shall use a other backup solution.

Remove RAID system
Re: Remove RAID system
Easiest really is to remove one drive from the raid With mdadm or mounting home directly to the sda. But realy theres about zillion howtos on the web that describe this. I dont really feel like doing your google searches for you 

Re: Remove RAID system
There is unfortunately no way to do this from the web UI. However, it really is not damaging anything to leave it like you have it now, with RAID enabled, but degraded since the disk is missing. It is just as secure (/insecure) as having just one single disk.
The only simple way to restore your unit to non-raid is a complete re-install. On the command line it is probably possible but difficult, if you know your way around the linux shell you can most likely google the solution.
