The RAID 1 set is the operating system, NBU, etc. and not used to house backup data.

Two disk drives in a RAID 1 configuration provide the operating system for the appliance. These disk drives are located in slots 0 and 1 in the appliance front panel.

/inst is the location where you have place the software upgrade files etc.,
whenever you wish to upload new appliance maintenance patch for upgrade purposes, you should place it inside /inst/patch/incoming/
Once there, then you need to validate whether that file is intact, either you do it by md5sum checks or go to
Main.menu> Manage>Software>List downloaded
Here, the file you uploaded will be verified, only once that verification is successful, you can proceed with
>install <file_Name>
Thanks.
