JBOD
JBOD (Just a Bunch of Drives) is also called data spanning. It will
expands the capacity of your drive and results in a useable total
capacity since it will make several hard disk types configured as a
single hard disk, and the hard drives are simply hooked up in
series. However, JBOD will not increase any performance or data
security.
RAID 5
RAID 5 stripes both data and parity information across three or
more hard disk drives. Among the advantages of RAID 5
configuration include better HDD performance, fault tolerance,
and higher storage capacity. The RAID 5 configuration is best
suited for transaction processing, relational database applications,
enterprise resource planning, and other business systems. Use a
minimum of three identical hard disk drives for this setup.
