  • 8 RAID - Redundant Array of Independent Disks RAID technology manages multiple disk drives to enhance I/O performance and provide redundancy in order to withstand the failure of any individual drive, without loss of data. Disk Striping (RAID 0) Striping is a performance-oriented, non-redundant data mapping technique. While Striping is discussed as a RAID Set type, it actually do

  • IOGear GIC704SR5W6, 9 Mirrored-Striping (RAID 0+1 also known as RAID 10) A Mirrored-Striping Set does just what it says, combining both Striping and Mirroring technologies to pro- vide both the performance enhancements that come from Striping and the data availability and integrity that comes from Mirroring. When data is written to a Mirrored-Striped Set, instead of creating just one virtual disk as Striping would do, a second Mirrored virtual disk is created as well. Parity RAID (RAID 5) Parity or RAID 5 adds fa
