RAID 1+0:
RAID 1 drives can be stripped using RAID 0 techniques. Resulting in a RAID 1+0
solution for improved resiliency, performance and rebuild performance.
Features and Benefits
Drives: Minimum 4, and maximum is 6 or 8, depending on the platform.
­
Benefits: Optimizes for both fault tolerance and performance, allowing for
­
automatic redundancy. May be simultaneously used with other RAID levels
in an array, and allows for spare disks.
Drawbacks: Requires twice the available disk space for data redundancy,
­
the same as RAID level 1.
Fault Tolerance: Yes.
