Storage Devices and RAID Configurations  Flashcards

RAID 1
SAS
RAID 5
Striping across multiple drives for performance but lacks redundancy
High-performance storage interface for enterprise environments
Combines striping and mirroring for both performance and redundancy, requiring an even number of drives
RAID 10
Mirroring data across drives for redundancy but halves available capacity
Similar to RAID 5 but uses double parity for higher fault tolerance, requiring at least four drives
Stripes data with distributed parity for performance and redundancy but requires at least three drives
RAID 0
RAID 6
FrontBack
External HDDCost-effective and portable but slower than SSD options
External SSDPortable with high-speed performance suitable for large file transfers
HDDTraditional spinning disk storage that is slower but more cost-effective for large capacities
NASNetwork-attached storage for centralized file sharing and backups
NVMeHigh-speed storage interface designed for SSDs using PCIe lanes
RAID 0Striping across multiple drives for performance but lacks redundancy
