unsaon man pamaagi sa RAID?kay nag nosebleed jud ko ani...nya unsay advantages ani?

I'm on RAID 0 (striping) which is optimized for performance. To run RAID, you need 2 or more hard drives. The most common and most basic RAID arrays are mirroring (RAID 1) and striping (RAID 0).

RAID 0 - data is stripped into smaller pieces (e.g. 128kb) and are written on the 2 hard drives, because of this method, you are theoretically doubling the write and read speed of the hard drive and thus result in faster performance. if 1 of the disks die though, you will lose all your data since naka striped man ang data set.

RAID 1 - mirroring, from the name itself whatever is written on disk 1 is also written on disk 2. this provides redundancy so even if 1 of the drive dies, your system is still up and running. The only drawback is a slower write speed since it has to write both data on 2 hard drives but nothing you'd really feel..benchmarks ra makakita sa degrade sa performance.

^ wow. nagnosebleed sad ko dah..

or if you want to get better, use ssd drives in raid that would be verry good. especially in raid 0 ^^,

Dual 120gb SSD bah nindot kaayo, nindot sad kaayo ang price.

in my opinion, SSDs on RAID is pointless. RAID stands for Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks, now what makes SSD inexpensive?

Naa sad na cya RAID-5 with a parity drive, if one hard disk crashes, you can restore data using the other drives in the series.

Look for disk management in your O.S. where you can convert your basic hard disk into dynamic disk where its only supported by windows 2000, xp professional (not on home edition) and on vista (not on home basic and premium) and not sure on windows 7 but I think it has the feature.

Setting up your hard disk to dynamic is related to raid.

Take for example, you have five 1TB harddisks and you want to assign them into one drive letter C, so you have to make all your 1TBs into dynamic hard disk and assign drive letter C, so when you read your drive letter C, it will read 5TBs.

naka kita ko atong video na murag 21pcs 250gb ssd ba in raid. the speed was pretty good. ang price was estimated 3k USD ahaha.

basig naay RAED Redundant Array of Expensive Disks. =)

hmm ask lng ko sirs, pwede ba mgRAID ang 160gb nga IDE? kinahanglan ba sad nga same capacity or identical jud ang mga HDD nga gamiton?
and about the diferent RAID setups, defined na ni cya daan nga like RAID-1 "mirroring" teknik ni cya or pwede sad ta makabuot buot og himo ug atoang RAID setup and name it like RAID-15 etc.?
