Addonics Technologies RR2035ASDML User Manual
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 sectors 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.
