Chapter 1 Administrative Overview 5
RAID Options RAID 0 (drive striping): Large virtual drive with data
striped across all drives of the array to provide maximum
performance with no loss in usable capacity. Does not
provide data protection.
RAID 1 (drive mirroring): One or more drives duplicate
one drive for maximum data protection.
Note Available only on systems with two (2) or more
drives.
RAID 5 (drive striping with parity): For each array, the
size of one drive is reserved for parity. Provides good
performance and space utilization with one-drive fault
tolerance.
Note Available only on systems with four (4) or more
drives.
RAID 6 (drive striping with two parity drives): Like a
RAID 5 except that two drives are used for parity rather
than one. Provides moderate performance and
reasonable space utilization with two-drive fault
tolerance.
Note Available only on systems with four (4) or more
drives.
RAID 10 (striped mirroring): A combination of RAID 0
and RAID 1. Provides high performance and fault
tolerance.
Note Available only on systems with four (4) or more
drives.
Global or local hot spare support
Instant Capacity Expansion (ICE): Logically groups
RAIDs for dynamic online scalability.
DHCP Support Supports Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) for
automatic assignment of IP addresses
