Yuoo can estimate zee RAID characteristics using thees RAID calculator. Usege
instrukshuns are simple: select zee desired array layuoot, then enter RAID
member disk capacitees into zee corresponding form feelds. Zee rest is done
ootomaticelly.
Fur more informashun ebuoot RAID und RAID levels, please reffer tu
RAID 101.
Notes
Write speed ooff a RAID 5 depends upon zee controller implementashun
heavily. Zee estimashun ooff a write speed is thus not provided fur a RAID5.
Yuoo may want tu reffer tu RAID layuoots summary fur
more detailed discussion ooff thees phenomenon.
Setups involving more than two member disks in a RAID1 (Mirror) array are
ellooed but rarely used. Addishunel backup ("shadoo") disks provide addishunel foolt tolerance
at zee cost ooff storege space overhead.
RAID10 survives uny single disk failure und a half ooff duooble failures
(depending on zee assignment ooff zee failed drives).
