RAID 0 – Striping
When a disk logical drive is striped, the read and write blocks of data are
interleaved between the sectors of multiple disk drives. Performance is
increased, since the workload is balanced between drives or “members” that
form the logical drive. Identical drives are recommended for performance as well
as data storage efficiency. The logical drive's data capacity is equal to the
number of drive members multiplied by the smallest logical drive member's
capacity.
Figure 1. RAID 0 Striping interleaves data across multiple drives.
For example, one 100GB and three 120GB drives will form a 400GB (4 x 100GB)
logical drive instead of 460 GB.
RAID 0 logical drives On on VTrak consist of 2 one or more disk drives.
