Adaptec SATA RAID Utility for Intel ICH-HR
spanned volume
A simple volume that spans two or more drives.
stripe
Contiguous set of data distributed across all the disks in an array. A striped
array distributes data evenly across all members in equalized sections called
stripes.
stripe size
The amount of data in each section of a striped array.
striped array
See RAID 0.
T
task
An operation that occurs only on the RAID controller, asynchronous to all
other operations; for example, initializing a disk or verifying an array. Some
tasks can take an extended period of time, particularly if the RAID controller is
also performing intensive data I/O while the task is running.
V
verify
Low-level check that a drive, logical device, or hot spare is good. In a RAID 1,
verify is a low-level check that contents of both members' segments are con-
sistent and, optionally, corrects errors while assuming that the master drive is
correct. In a simple volume, verify performs a low-level check that the whole
drive can be read.
