Chapter 2 I ntroduction to RA ID 5 2 Introduction to RAID RAID (R edundant Array of Indepen dent Disks) is an array of multiple independent hard disk d rives that provid e high perform ance and f ault tolerance. A RAID dis k subsy stem improv es I/O performan ce over a comput er using on ly a single driv e.
AD AC Ul tra2 S466 Har dware Guide 6 In This Chapter The follow ing topics are discussed: Major Topic Subtopic turn to Host-based solut i on page 7 RAID overview page 8 Consiste ncy che ck page 8 Faul.
Chapter 2 I ntroduction to RA ID 7 A DA C Ultra2 S466 – Host-B ased RA ID Solution RAID produ cts are either: • host-based or • SCSI-to-SCSI. The ADA C Ultra2 S466 cont roller is a host -based RAID soluti on. ADA C Ultra2 S466 is a PC I adapter card that is installed in any available PCI expansion slo t in a host system .
AD AC Ul tra2 S466 Har dware Guide 8 RA ID Overv iew RAID (Redu ndant Array of Independent Dis ks) is a collection of specif ications that describe a sy stem for ensuring the reliability and stability of data stored on large disk s ubsys tems. A RAID s ystem can be im plemen ted in a num ber of diff erent versions (or RAID Lev els).
Chapter 2 I ntroduction to RA ID 9 Disk Striping Disk striping writes data across multiple disk drives instead of just one disk d rive. Disk striping involves p artitioning each drive storage space in to stripes that can vary in size from 2 KB to 128 KB.
AD AC Ul tra2 S466 Har dware Guide 10 Disk Spanning Disk spanning allows mu ltiple d isk drives to functio n like one big drive. Span ning overcom es lack of disk space and simplifies storage managem ent by combining existing resources or adding relativ ely inexpen sive resources.
Chapter 2 I ntroduction to RA ID 11 Disk Mirroring With mirroring (used in RAID 1), data written to one disk drive is simultaneously written to another disk d rive. If one disk drive f ails, the contents of th e other disk drive can be used to run the system and reconstruct the failed drive.
AD AC Ul tra2 S466 Har dware Guide 12 Parity Parity generates a set of redundancy data from tw o or more parent data sets. The redundancy data can be used to reconstruct one of the parent data sets. P arity data does not fully duplicate the pa rent d ata sets.
Chapter 2 I ntroduction to RA ID 13 Hot Spares A hot spa r e is an extra , unused d i sk d rive that is p art o f the disk s ubsys tem. It i s usual ly in s tandby m ode, ready for service if a drive fails. Hot spares permit you to replace failed drives without system shutdo wn or user intervention.
AD AC Ul tra2 S466 Har dware Guide 14 Disk Rebuild You rebuild a disk dr ive b y recreating the data that had been stored on the driv e before the drive failed. Rebuilding can be do ne only in arrays w ith d ata redundan cy such as RAID le vel 1, 3, 5, 10, 30, and 50.
Chapter 2 I ntroduction to RA ID 15 Logical Drive A logical drive is a partition in a physical array of disks that is made up of contiguous da ta segments on the phy sical disks.
AD AC Ul tra2 S466 Har dware Guide 16 SCSI Drive St ates A SCSI disk driv e can be in one of these states: State Description Online (ONLIN) The drive is f unctioning norm ally a nd is a part of a config ured logical drive.
Chapter 2 I ntroduction to RA ID 17 Disk A rray Types The RAID disk array types are: Type De scription Softwa re- Based The a rray is manag ed by s oftwa re running in a hos t computer us ing the host CPU bandwidth.

Chapter 3 RA I D Le vel s 19 3 RAID Lev els The r e are six officia l RAID leve ls (RAID 0 through RAI D 5). ADA C Ultra2 S466 su pports RAID l evels 0, 1, 3, and 5. Gateway has designed three additional RAID levels (10, 30, and 5 0) that pro vide additional b enefits.
AD AC Ul tra2 S466 Har dware Guide 20 Selecting a RA ID Level Level Description and Use Pros Cons Max. Drives Fault Tolerant 0 Data divided in blocks and distributed sequentia lly (pure striping). Use for non-critica l data that requir es high perf orma nce.
Chapter 3 RA I D Le vel s 21 RA ID 0 RAID 0 prov ides disk s triping acros s all drives i n the RAID s ubsy stem. R AID 0 does not prov ide any dat a redundan cy, but does offer th e best perform ance of any RAID level. RAID 0 breaks up data into smaller blocks and then w rites a block to each drive in the array .
AD AC Ul tra2 S466 Har dware Guide 22 RA ID 1 In RA ID 1, ADAC Ultra2 S466 duplicat es all data from one drive to a secon d drive. RAID 1 provides com plete data redundancy , but at the cost of dou bling the required data storage capacity .
Chapter 3 RA I D Le vel s 23 RA ID 3 RAID 3 prov ides disk s triping an d complete dat a redund ancy though a de dicat e d par ity drive. T he strip e size mu st be 64 KB if R AID 3 is us ed. RAID 3 han dles data at the block level, not the b yte level, so it is ideal for networks that ofte n ha ndle ver y large files, such as gr aphic images.
AD AC Ul tra2 S466 Har dware Guide 24 RA ID 3, Continued RAID 5 vs RAID 3 You m ay fin d that RAID 5 is pref erable to RAID 3 even for applications ch aracterized by sequential reads an d w rites, because ADA C Ultra2 S466 has v ery robust caching alg orithms.
Chapter 3 RA I D Le vel s 25 RA ID 5 RAID 5 includes disk striping at the byte level and parity. In RAID 5, the parity inform ation is written to several drives. R AID 5 is best suited for n etwork s that perf orm a lot of small I/O transactions simu ltaneously.
AD AC Ul tra2 S466 Har dware Guide 26 RA ID 10 RAID 10 i s a combin ation of RA ID 0 and RA ID 1. RAID 10 has m irrored drives . RAID 10 breaks u p data into smaller block s, and then stripes the block s of data to each RAID 1 raid set. Each RAID 1 raid set then duplicates its data to its other drive.
Chapter 3 RA I D Le vel s 27 RA ID 30 RAID 30 i s a combin ation of RA ID 0 and RA ID 3. RAID 30 provides h igh data tran sfer speeds an d high dat a reliability. RAID 30 is best implem ented on two RAID 3 disk array s w ith data st riped across both di sk arrays .
AD AC Ul tra2 S466 Har dware Guide 28 RA ID 50 RAID 50 prov ides the f eatures of both RAID 0 and R AID 5. RAID 50 i ncludes both parity an d disk stripi ng across multiple drives. RAID 50 is best implem ented on two RAID 5 di sk arrays with data striped across both disk arrays .
