Finish partitioning the drives

If you are creating more than one RAID device repeat steps 3.1 throught 3.4 until you have all of the desired RAID devices. Once all of the RAID devices have been made write down the device names. The names should be something like /dev/md0. Once the names of the devices have been written down click “Next”.
