RAID 0+1 and RAID 10 Schemes
On the Xserve RAID system, RAID 0+1 is a stripe of mirrored pairs. An example of this configuration is shown at the top of the illustration below.
Using a combination of the hardware controller and software, you configure the system using RAID 10 with two drive modules on each controller. The drive modules on each side can be either striped together or mirrored.
