Do the luns within a tray have to be the same RAID level?

A. No. RAID levels can be mixed within the tray. But…there is a catch. Check out the rules for creating luns in the question above. If you create a RAID 0 lun first, and later create a RAID 1 or 5, you won’t be able to have a hot spare with it. If you create the RAID1 or 5 first, you will not be able to create a RAID 0 later. Again, please see the lun creation rules above.
