Ch 3: Installing Optional Devices Hitachi PC VisionBas e 8450H/R Server 51 Disk Array What is a disk array? “Disk array” refers to the use of two or more hard disks concatenated into one logical disk. It is also called Redundant Arrays of Inexpensive Disks (RAID).
Ch 3: Installing Optional Devices 52 Hitachi PC VisionBas e 8450H/R Server RAID1 Data is stored into two hard disks, a data disk and a mirrored disk, in the same way. Number of hard disks required: 2 (fixed) Advantage: 100% data redundancy is ensured.
Ch 3: Installing Optional Devices Hitachi PC VisionBas e 8450H/R Server 53 RAID3 Data is striped in bytes into data disks. Array parities are stored in the parity disk. Number of hard disks required: 3 (min.) to 6 (max.) Advantages: • Capacity-to-cost ratio is improved as compared with RAID1.
Ch 3: Installing Optional Devices 54 Hitachi PC VisionBas e 8450H/R Server RAID5 Data, together with array parity, is striped in blocks, extending over all hard disks. Number of hard disks required: 3 (min.) to 6 (max.) Advantages: • Capacity-to-cost ratio is improved as compared with RAID1.
Ch 3: Installing Optional Devices Hitachi PC VisionBas e 8450H/R Server 55 Functions of Disk Array Degraded mode The RAID3 or RAID5 disk array enables you to keep on using the array as usual even if one of the hard disks fails.
