The Helios4 System-On-Chip is a 32bit architecture, therefore the max partition size supported is 16TB. If your RAID array is more than 16TB of usable space, then you will need to create more than just one partition. You can use **fdisk /dev/md0** command to create several partitions on your array, then instead of using */dev/md0* for the below commands, it will be */dev/md0p1*, */dev/md0p2*, etc...
Create a filesystem on the array:
sudo mkfs.ext4 -F /dev/md0

2. Add a Volume Group. (Volume Group contains Physical Volumes)
3. Add one ore more Logical Volumes. (Logical Volumes are like partitions)
