RAID Conguration Introduction
RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) is a method for computer data storage
schemes that divide and/or replicate data among multiple hard drives. RAID can be
designed to provide increased data reliability (fault tolerance) or increased I/O (input/
output) performance, or both. The following RAID congurations are provided for
users.
There are three major key concepts in RAID:
1. Mirroring : The copying of data to more than one disk;
2. Striping : The splitting of data across more than one disk;
3. Error correction : Where redundant data is stored to allow problems to be detected
and possibly xed (known as fault tolerance).
Different RAID levels use one or more of these techniques, depending on the system
requirements. The main aims of using RAID are to improve reliability, important for
protecting information that is critical to a business, for example a database of customer
orders; or where speed is important, for example a system that delivers video on
demand TV programs to many viewers.
The conguration affects reliability and performance in different ways. The problem
with using more disks is that it is more likely that one will go wrong, but by using
error checking the total system can be made more reliable by being able to survive
and repair the failure. Basic mirroring can speed up reading data as a system can
read different data from both the disks, but it may be slow for writing if it insists that
both disks must conrm that the data is correctly written. Striping is often used for
performance, where it allows sequences of data to be read off multiple disks at the
same time. Error checking typically will slow the system down as data needs to be
read from several places and compared. The design of RAID systems is therefore a
compromise and understanding the requirements of a system is important. Modern
disk arrays typically provide the facility to select the appropriate RAID conguration.
RAID is often used in high availability systems, where it is important that the system
keeps running as much of the time as possible.

RAID 0 (Striping)
RAID 0 reads and writes sectors of data interleaved among multiple drives. If any disk
member fails, it affects the entire array. The disk array data capacity is equal to the
number of drive members times the capacity of the smallest member. RAID 0 does
not support fault tolerance.
RAID 1 (Mirroring)
RAID 1 writes duplicate data onto a pair of drives and reads both sets of data in
parallel. If one of the mirrored drives suffers a mechanical failure or does not respond,
the remaining drive will continue to function. Due to redundancy, the drive capacity of
the array is the capacity of the smallest drive.
RAID 5 (Parity)
RAID 5 provides data striping at the byte level and also stripes error correction
information. This results in excellent performance and good fault tolerance. Level 5 is
one of the most popular implementations of RAID.
RAID 0+1 (Stripe Mirroring)
RAID 10 is a combination of striping and mirroring. This conguration provides optimal
speed and reliability, but you need four SATA hard disks.
Spanning (JBOD)
JBOD stands for “Just a Bunch of Disks”. Each drive is accessed as if it was on a
standard SCSI host bus adapter. This is useful when a single drive conguration is
needed, but it offers no speed improvement or fault tolerance. A spanned volume is a
formatted partition which data is stored on more than one hard disk, yet appears as
one volume. Unlike RAID, spanned volumes have no fault-tolerance, so if any disk
fails, the data on the whole volume could be lost. Additionally, the system or boot
partitions cannot be included in a spanned volume. FAT16/32 and NTFS le systems
may be used, and the volume can span up to 32 hard disks.
Comparison Table :
Solution Hard Disks No. Capacity Performance Reliability Application
RAID0 >=2 All Highest Dangerous Look for speed
RAID1 2 50% Read faster Excellent 100% Data backup
RAID5 >=3 N-1 Read faster
Write slower Good Limited budget
RAID0+1 >=4
(Even number) Smallest
*2 High Excellent Unlimited budget
Span >=1 All none Dangerous Big disk space

NVIDIA®MediaShield Driver
The NVIDIA®MediaShield driver supports RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, and RAID 0+1
functions. It allows you to get high performance with fault tolerance, big capacity, or
data safety provided by different RAID functions.
Here, we will use four SATA hard disks as an example to guide you how to select your
RAID system. Assume four hard disks are connected to the motherboard :
SATA port 1 - WDC WD1200JD-98HBBO, 111.79GB
SATA port 2 - Hitachi HDT725025VLA, 232.88GB
SATA port 3 - HDS728080PLA380, 76.69GB
SATA port 4 - ST3320620AS, 298.09GB
The relationships between RAID settings and SATA ports on the motherboard are :
SATA Pri-Master RAID is the SATA port 1 of the motherboard.
SATA Pri-Slave RAID is the SATA port 2.
SATA Sec-Master RAID is the SATA port 3.
SATA Sec-Slave RAID is the SATA port 4.
In section 5-3 later, you will know the relationships between port numbers in the
MediaShield BIOS and SATA ports on the motherboard. We put their descriptions here
for better arrangement. They are :
Port 1.1 is the SATA port 2 of the motherboard.
Port 1.0 is the SATA port 1.
Port 2.1 is the SATA port 4.
Port 2.0 is the SATA port 3.
