Performance Performance is easy to understand, but it is difficult to measure because it involves several factors, some of which are beyond the scope of this document. Overall storage performance is determined by write performance and read performance, both of which vary based on the RAID technology selected. ● RAID 0 (striping) improves overall storage performance because data can be written and read simultaneously across two hard drives. ● Recovery and RAID 1 (mirroring) writes the same data to both hard drives; therefore, write performance may be slower. However, data can be read from both hard drives, so the read performance can be higher than that of a single non-RAID hard drive. ● RAID 5 performs at a level between RAID 0 and RAID 1. 6 Chapter 2 RAID technology overview

Performance
Performance is easy to understand, but it is difficult to measure because it involves several factors,
some of which are beyond the scope of this document. Overall storage performance is determined by
write performance and read performance, both of which vary based on the RAID technology selected.
●
RAID 0 (striping) improves overall storage performance because data can be written and read
simultaneously across two hard drives.
●
Recovery and RAID 1 (mirroring) writes the same data to both hard drives; therefore, write
performance may be slower. However, data can be read from both hard drives, so the read
performance can be higher than that of a single non-RAID hard drive.
●
RAID 5 performs at a level between RAID 0 and RAID 1.
