Extreme RAID: How STORM Xtreme Array Delivers True "No Single Point Of Failure" Data Availability For Mission-Critical Applications
White Papers They offer multiple, redundant fibre channel connections from the RAID controller to the disks and hosts to survive fibre channel connection or adapter failures. RAID storage systems have always been regarded as inherently fault tolerant.

The Time Has Come To Switch To RAID 10
White Papers RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) is the standard for combining multiple independent hard drives to form one large logical array. Various RAID levels define the way data is distributed and redundant capacity is implemented.

What Is RAID
White Papers The basic idea of RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) is to combine multiple inexpensive disk drives into an array of disk drives to obtain performance, capacity and reliability that exceeds that of a single large drive.

RAID Explained
White Papers The acronym 'RAID' stands for Redundant Array of Independent (or Inexpensive) Disks. It is generally recommended that all disks in a RAID should be identical (or at the very least, the same size and speed).

RAID-II: A High-Bandwidth Network File Server
White Papers Berkeley built a prototype disk array called RAID-I. The bandwidth delivered to clients by RAID-I was severely limited by the memory system bandwidth of the disk array's host workstation. The authors designed the second prototype, RAID-II, to...
