RAID Array Controller
RAID 0
RAID 0 breaks up data into smaller chunks and writes each chunk to a different drive in the array. The size of each chunk is determined by the controller’s chunk size parameter, which you set in the course of creating a RAID set.
The advantage of RAID 0 is its high bandwidth. By breaking up a large block of data into smaller chunks, the controller can use multiple drive channels to write the chunks to the disk drives. Furthermore, RAID 0 involves no parity calculations to complicate the write operation. Likewise, a RAID 0 read operation employs multiple drives to assemble a single, large data block. This makes RAID 0 ideal for applications such as graphics, video, and imaging that involve the writing and reading of large, sequential blocks.
CAUTION: The lack of parity means that a RAID
