Try http://support.ts.fujitsu.com/Manuals/ShowDescription_KMT.asp?DokuID=214441. Login into the GUI as Manager, and create a VDISK to define the RAID arrangement for the physical disks. Then create a VOLUME on the VDISK and finally MAP the volumes out to the HOSTS.

Well, you can't do anything with the disks until they are inserted into the SX60!

When you come to create the VDISK, you will need to specify the HDDs you want to be included (so they need to be already seen by the SX60) and you will need to specify the RAID level (persumably RAID 1).
