RAID (/ r eɪ d /; redundant array of inexpensive disks or redundant array of independent disks) [1] [2] is a data storage virtualization technology that combines multiple physical data storage components into one or more logical units for the purposes of data redundancy, performance improvement, or both.
The usable capacity of a RAID 01 array is the same as in a RAID 1 array made of the same drives, in which one half of the drives is used to mirror the other half. ( N / 2 ) ⋅ S m i n {\displaystyle (N/2)\cdot S_{\mathrm {min} }} , where N {\displaystyle N} is the total number of drives and S m i n {\displaystyle S_{\mathrm {min} }} is the ...
Diagram of a RAID 1 setup. RAID 1 consists of an exact copy (or mirror) of a set of data on two or more disks; a classic RAID 1 mirrored pair contains two disks.This configuration offers no parity, striping, or spanning of disk space across multiple disks, since the data is mirrored on all disks belonging to the array, and the array can only be as big as the smallest member disk.
Like all RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks), Intel RST RAID employs two or more physical hard disks which the operating system will treat as a single disk, in order to increase redundancy which avoids data loss (except RAID 0), and/or to increase the speed at which data is written to and/or read from a disk.
While different in nature, data redundancy also occurs in database systems that have values repeated unnecessarily in one or more records or fields, ...
Data conditioning builds on existing data storage functionality delivered in the I/O path including RAID (Redundant Arrays of Inexpensive Disks), intelligent I/O-based power management, and SSD (Solid-State Drive) performance caching techniques.
Disk mirroring (or Redundant Arrays of Independent Disks—RAID) so that failure of internal disks does not result in system crashes. The Distributed Replicated Block Device is one example. Redundant network connections so that single cable, switch, or network interface failures do not result in network outages.
HP EVA4400 storage array, consisting of 2U controller enclosure (top) and 4 2U disk shelves. A disk array is a disk storage system which contains multiple disk drives. [1] It is differentiated from a disk enclosure, in that an array has cache memory and advanced functionality, like RAID, deduplication, encryption and virtualization.
