The Port Multiplier supports individual drives (JBOD Mode), several
types of RAID and some non-RAID drive sets. Each configuration has
different properties and requirements, as follows:
JBOD Mode (Individual Drives)
Number of drives: at least 1
Unit capacity: N/A (100% of each individual drive)
Spares: no
Fault tolerance: none
JBOD mode offers all connected units to the host adapter, no RAID is
defined at all.
NOTE: JBOD mode requires a SATA controller featuring Port Multiplier
support for eSATA connections.
NOTE: Optical drives can only be configured as JBOD using an eSATA
connection.
RAID 0 (Stripe set)
Number of drives: at least 2
Unit capacity: size of each member times number of members.
Spares: no
Fault tolerance: none - if any member is lost all data is lost.
RAID 0 "stripes" the file system across the array by placing "chunks" of
data sequentially between drives in a specific order.
RAID 1 or 10 (Mirror set, Stripe of mirror sets)
Number of drives: 2 (RAID 1) or 4 (RAID 10).
Unit capacity: size of one member (RAID 1) or size of two members
(RAID 10).
Spares: yes – if EZ mode is not disabled and 3 (RAID 1) or 5 (RAID 10)
drives are present, the array will be initialized with a spare.
Fault tolerance: RAID 1 can withstand the loss of one drive without losing
data. RAID 10 can withstand the loss of one drive from each mirror set
without losing data.
RAID 1 works by duplicating the exact same data on two drives.
RAID 10 works by using two RAID 1 sets configured as members of a
RAID 0. Disks 1 and 2 are mirrored, disks 3 and 4 are mirrored, and the
two mirror sets are striped together.
RAID 3 (Stripe set with dedicated parity)
Number of drives: at least 3
Unit capacity: size of one member times number of members minus one.
Spares: yes
Fault tolerance: can withstand the loss of one drive without losing data.
RAID 3 works by striping data for individual I/O blocks across all mem-
