78 Appendix C: RAID Basics Overview A Redundant Array of Independent Disks (RAID) is a n array of several hard di sks that provide data security and high perf ormance. A RAI D system accesses several hard disks simultaneously, which improves I/O performance over a single h ard disk.
79 RAID 1 RAID 1 mirrors all data from one hard di sk drive to a second one hard disk drive, thus providing complete data redundancy . However, the cost of data storage capacity is doubled.
Disk Usage When all 5 disks are of the same size , and used in RAID, N5200 disk usage percentage is listed below: RAID Level Percentage Used RAID 0 100% RAID 1 20% RAID 5 80% RAID 6 60% RAID 10 50% JBOD 100% NOTE RAID 10 allows only 4 disks and one as spare disk.
