Drives
RAID 0 provides disk striping across all drives in the RAID subsystem. RAID 0 does not provide any data redundancy, but does offer the best performance of any RAID level. RAID 0 breaks up data into smaller blocks and then writes a block to each drive in the array. The size of each block is determined by the stripe size parameter, set during the creation of the RAID set. RAID 0 offers high bandwidth. By breaking up a large file into smaller blocks, ADAC Ultra2 S466 can use several drives to read or write the file faster. RAID 0 involves no parity calculations to complicate the write operation. This makes RAID 0 ideal for applications that require high bandwidth but do not require fault tolerance.
RAID 0 provides high data throughput, especially for large files. Any environment hat does not require fault tolerance.
Provides increased data throughput for large files. No capacity loss penalty for parity.
Does not provide fault tolerance. All data lost if any drive fails.
