In the left pane, select the disks you want to use (at least three in total) and click Add.

Select the size to use from each disk. The size must be equal for each disk, so the largest space you can use is the smallest free space on any disk. After you select the size, click Next. If you select 1000MB from each disk, the total size would be only 2000MB because parity information uses a third of the space.

Select a drive letter to use, and click Next.

Select the file system to use and the label. You might also select whether to enable file and folder compression. Click Next.

The program displays a summary screen. Click Finish.
