  • Page 7: Raid Concepts

    NAS System 1.3 RAID Concepts RAID Fundamentals The basic idea of RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) is to combine multiple inexpensive disk drives into an array of disk drives to obtain performance, capacity and reliability that exceeds that of a single large drive. The array of drives appears to the host computer as a single logical drive.
  • Page 8 NAS System drives to work concurrently on different I/O operations, and thus maximize the number of simultaneous I/O operations that can be performed by the array. Definition of RAID Levels RAID 0 is typically defined as a group of striped disk drives without parity or data redundancy.
  • Page 9 NAS System Under RAID 5 parity information is distributed across all the drives. Since there is no dedicated parity drive, all drives contain data and read operations can be overlapped on every drive in the array. Write operations will typically access one data drive and one parity drive.
  • Page 10: Array Definition

    NAS System Dual-level RAID achieves a balance between the increased data availability inherent in RAID 1 and RAID 5 and the increased read performance inherent in disk striping (RAID 0). These arrays are sometimes referred to as RAID 0+1 or RAID 10 and RAID 0+5 or RAID In summary: RAID 0 is the fastest and most efficient array type but offers no fault-tolerance.
  • Page 11: Virtual Drive

    NAS System A Drive Group is a group of physical drives attached to the RAID controller, and where one or more Virtual Drives (VD) can be created. All Virtual Drives in the Drive Group use all of the physical drives in the Drive Group. It is not possible to have multiple Disk Groups on the same physical disks.
