<WRAP info>
**NOTE:**  Some of these can be ignored, as used internally by QNAP.

QNAP NAS will be automatically cut the internal hard disk into 5 partitions after being connected.

^Partition^Array^Type^Capacity*1k=1000^Mount^Use^
|sda1|md9|raid1|542M|/mnt/HDA_ROOT|Save profile.  Configuration, updates and root.|
|sda2|md256|raid1|542M||Log storage area?|
|sda3|md1|Set by Storage Pool|Disk free space||Data.  Storage pool.|
|sda4|md13|raid1|469M|/mnt/ext|Plug-in storage area*.  Web interface engine and other OS extension.|
|sda5|md322|raid1|7408M||SWAP.|

  * ***sda4/md13** is for programs like Apache and Python, but apps like HybridBackup will soft-link to /share/XXXXXXXX/.qpkg/ (XXXXXXX may be CACHEDEV1_DATA), the actual location is the storage of **sda3/md1** Pool area.

===== Determine Salient Raids =====

To ignore the internal RAIDs used by QNAP.

<code bash>
/bin/cat /proc/mdstat | /bin/sed '/md/i \break' | /bin/tr '\n' ' ' | /bin/awk -v RS=break '/([sv]d[a-z][a-z]*)3/' 

or

/bin/cat /proc/mdstat | /bin/sed '/md/i \break' | /bin/tr '\n' ' ' | /bin/awk -v RS=break '/([sv]d[a-z][a-z]*|nvme[0-9a-z]*p|loop[0-9a-z]*p)3|dm-/'
</code>

returns:

<code bash>
 md4 : active raid1 sdi3[0]       23432007232 blocks super 1.0 [1/1] [U]        
 md3 : active raid1 sdk3[0]       23432007232 blocks super 1.0 [1/1] [U]        
 md1 : active raid6 sdf3[0] sdd3[7] sdg3[6] sdh3[5] sdc3[4] sdb3[2] sda3[3] sde3[1]       46824429696 blocks super 1.0 level 6, 64k chunk, algorithm 2 [8/8] [UUUUUUUU]       bitmap: 17/59 pages [68KB], 65536KB chunk

===== Run md_checker =====

**md_checker** is a QNAP script which checks the software RAID.

<code bash>
md_checker
