RAID support for the Dell 8TB 7.2K RPM
RAID, or Redundant Array of Independent Disks, is a technology that allows multiple hard disk drives to be combined into a single logical unit to improve data availability, performance, and/or capacity. RAID support for the Dell 8TB 7.2K RPM SAS-12GBPS 512e Hard Disk Drive refers to its ability to be used in a RAID configuration.
The Dell 8TB 7.2K RPM SAS-12GBPS 512e Hard Disk Drive supports various RAID levels such as RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, RAID 6, RAID 10, and so on. These RAID levels provides different levels of data protection and performance.
RAID 0: Offers striping but no data protection. RAID 1: Offers mirroring, which provides redundancy by copying data to multiple disks. RAID 5: Offers striping with distributed parity, which provides protection against a single disk failure. RAID 6: Offers striping with dual distributed parity, which provides protection against two disk failures. RAID 10: Offers a combination of mirroring and striping, which provides both data redundancy and performance.
