1 WELCOME 1.1 INTRODUCTION DAS401 enhances your data storage by combining advanced RAID 1 features ty pically seen on high-end data systems with lo w cost/high capacity Serial ATA drive s.
1.3.2 DA TA PERFORMANCE The DAS401 can also increase sto rage throughpu t by combining the throughput of multip le drives into a single volume. RAID levels 1, 10, and 5 support this ability. Furt hermore, each volume can be tailored to provide the best performance for the da ta contained on that disk.
1.6.2 MACINTOSH SYSTEMS • PowerMac G5, MacBook Pro or Mac Pro • MacOS X, 10.4.8 (or later) • CD-ROM d rive • Mouse or compatible pointing device • SATA connection: Host Bus Adap ter card (controlle r number Sii3124 or Sii3132) and associated software drivers with Port Multiplier support 1.
2 AN INTRODUCTION T O RAID 2.1 RAID VOLUMES RAID technology allows one or more disks to be com bined into a logical volume which provides greater performance and/or prote ction than standard disk drive s.
2.3 RAID LEVELS 2.3.1 DISK STRIP ING (RAID 0) Striping is a performance-oriented, non-red undant data mapping technique. While Striping is discussed as a RAID Group type, it is does not provide any fault tolerance. With modern SATA an d ATA bus mastering technology, multiple I/O operatio ns can be performed in paralle l, enhancing data throughput.
2.3.4 P ARITY RAID (RAID 5) Parity or RAID 5 adds fault to lerance to Disk Striping by including parity informati on with the data. Parity RAID dedicates the equivale nt of one disk for storing parity stripes. Th e data and parity inform ation is arranged on the disk array so th at parity is written t o different disk s.
2.4 RAID VOLUME ST A T US A RAID volume can be in any one of the follo wing statuses. STA TUS MEA NING Good All disks are currently function ing as normal. Reduced For RAID levels that provide da ta protection, one or mo re disks have failed but the data is still available vi a the RAID algorithms.
