# Understanding creating spanned arrays

Notes:
  1. This feature is not supported on the integrated RAID controller.

When you group one or more arrays together and configure the ServeRAID controller to access them in a particular pattern, you create a spanned array.

Spanned arrays are used to create logical drives using as many as 60 physical drives. The ServeRAID controller supports RAID level-00, 10, 1E0, and 50.
