Single Disk Volume

Each hard disk drive is used as a

standalone disk. If a disk is damaged, all

the data will be lost.

JBOD (Just a bunch of disks)

JBOD is a collection of hard disk drives

that does not offer any RAID protection.

The data are written to the physical disks

sequentially. The total storage capacity

equals to the sum of the capacity of all the

member drives.

RAID 0 Striping Disk Volume

RAID 0 (striping disk) combines 2 or more

hard disk drives into one larger volume.

The data is written to the hard disk drives

without any parity information and no

redundancy is offered.

The total storage capacity equals to the

sum of the capacity of all the member

drives.

RAID 1 Mirroring Disk Volume

RAID 1 duplicates the data between two

hard disk drives to provide disk mirroring.

To create a RAID 1 array, a minimum of 2

hard drives are required.

The storage capacity of a RAID 1 disk

volume is equal to the size of the smallest

hard drive.
