29. 4 Data stripes from each drive are interleaved to create one logical drive By striping the drives in the array with stripes large enough so that each record falls entirely within one stripe most records can be evenly distributed across all drives This keeps all drives in the array busy during heavy load situations This situation allows all 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 RAI D Levels RAID O is typically defined as a group of striped disk drives without parity or data redundancy RAID O arrays can be configured with large stripes for multi user environments or small stripes for single user systems that access long sequential records RAID O arrays deliver the best data storage efficiency and performance of any array type The disadvantage is that if one drive in a RAID O array fails the entire array fails User Manual a NAS System Writes can occur simultaneously on every drive viti t DATA DATA DATA DATA DATA DATA NENNEN Reads can occur simultaneously on every drive RAID 1 also known as disk mirroring is simply a pair of disk drives that store duplicate data but appear to the computer as a single drive Although striping is not used within a single mirrored drive pair multiple RAID 1 arrays can be striped together to create a single large array consisting of pairs of mirro
