Spanning (JBOD)
A Spanning disk array (also aptly named as JBOD for “Just a Bunch of Drives”) is
equal to the sum of all drives when the drives used are of different capacities.
Spanning stores data on to a drive until it is full, then proceeds to store files onto
the next drive in the array. There are no additional performance or fault tolerance
array features in this array. When any disk member fails, the failure affects the
entire array.
