RAID 0 uses an algorithm to break files into smaller files of the user defined size called the stripe size. Once a file is broken down into these stripes, each drive in the array receives one or

Block size 3 3. Block order 4. Disk offset The RAID disks are represented as image files created in R-Studio: Disk1.arc Disk2.arc Disk3.arc Click image to enlarge Image files of RAID components Please note that even though R-Studio has found a Disk1 object on Disk2.arc, that does not necessarily indicate that this is the first disk in the RAID. Downtime is expensive, so either you need a cluster (or at least a pair of systems) so that you can afford to do a bare metal restore and a full recovery from backup when your 4 drive Raid 0 array craps out. RAID 0 is absolute crap - if you have a business case for the performance, get better hardware. I'm looking for a recommendation on block size and RAID0 stripe size. We have a RAID0 array consisting of six SAS drives. The array is a workspace for SAS programs (I know, the various SAS references are confusing). We have a handful of these workspaces set up, and so when a user submits a SAS program on our server, their program gets it's own dedicated workspace. In our tutorial "Create and configure a RAID 0, 1, 5, (Intel)" published in August 2015, we explained how to create a RAID with the RAID controller built into newer motherboards.Nevertheless, this Intel RAID was not a true RAID since it has no dedicated memory. In reality, this Intel RAID is a hybrid RAID or pseudo-material and it doesn't offer the same performance as a true RAID. RAID 1+0 - RAID 10 (Stripe/Mirror) RAID 1+0 or sometimes called RAID 10 is a combination of striping and mirroring. Here a minimum of four disks are required. The first two drives are striped the same as a RAID 0 configuration. The data is then mirrored to the last two drives. Now the performance of RAID 0 is combined with the fault tolerance Can any Linux gurus offer any advice on Ex
