Go to SolutionRAID Configuration
Hello,
Most, if not all, of the whitepapers I've read regarding RAID levels in a clariiion mention 4+1 or 8+1. Is there a reason why 5 or 9 disks are recommended for a RAID5 configuration? The reason I ask is because we currenlty have a 4+4 configuration, and we're thinking of implementing TWO 3+1 and use MetaLUNs from those spindles. I have not seen any whitepapers that mention using 4 disks for RAID5s. Any ideas?
thanks,
j
