Which of the two raid1 and raid 5 is better under ntfs?

raid 1 because RAID 1 device maintains a mirror of all the data in a partition on another partition of the disk on the array and NTFS support partitioning of disks


What is raid and tell you about different tipes of Raid levels?

RAID is redundant array of inexpensive disks. You have a few disks that are connected and this gives you some advantages. Very simply the levels that you need to know about are: JBOD - Just a bunch of disks. If the RAID is 4 x 1.0 TB you see just that - 4 disks. RAID 0 - Striping . All the disks are connected. in the above example, you see one large 4.0TB disk RAID 1 - Mirroring. Every disk has mirror version. Half the disk can die and you loose nothing. In the above example you see a 2.0 TB disk. RAID 5 - one parity disk. If one disk dies, you loose nothing. In the above example you would see a 3.0 TB disk. RAID 6 - two parity disks. If two disks die, you loose nothing. A 8 disk system would have 6 disk of usable space. Check out Wikipedia for a full explanation.

What deficiency is associated with RAID 0 compared with RAID 1?

RAID 0 is "Stripping" and RAID1 is "Mirroring". RAID0 doesn't provide fault tolerance but RAID1 does provide fault tolerance because it has a every disk has a mirrored disk so that in case of disk failure the other disk can be used.


Which RAID level will you implement to provide redundancy?

Type your answer here...Answer Explanation: RAID 1 uses a minimum of two hard disks to mirror data for fault tolerance. Each hard disk contains a complete copy of the data. Disk duplexing improves mirroring because each disk is on a separate controller. If one disk or controller fails in a duplexing RAID 1 array, the other disk can take over immediately to provide fault tolerance.RAID 5, also known as disk stripping with parity, provides fault tolerance by striping the data across a minimum of three and a maximum of 32 disks, and by storing parity information on each disk. This allows the RAID array to recover from a single disk failure.RAID 0, also known as disk striping, is used to increase performance by striping data over a minimum of two and a maximum of 32 disks. RAID 0 provides no fault tolerance.RAID 3, also known as disk stripping with a parity disk, provides fault tolerance by writing data across three or more drives. Because the least number of hard disks is required, RAID 1 will be used instead of RAID 3.

What are levels of RAID?

There are 5 levels of the Redundant Array Inexpensive Disks system of data storage. RAID 0 is what most people have all ready i.e. one hard disk in the computer. RAID 1 is two disks that the data is saved to i.e. 1 internal disk and 1 external disk. RAID 2 is when the data is saved to 2 disks at the same time i.e. 1 internal and 1 external / network disk. RAID 3 is when the data is saved to 1 internal disk as well as the network disk and then backed up to a disk in a separate suburb. RAID 4 involves more disks and more complexity with data being stored on separate disk more like inserting pages into a book. I'm sorry but the complexities of RAID 5 is a subject I am still learning

It must be a Dynamic disk, not Basic.


What is a RAID in technology?

an industrial standard which exist for multiple-disk database schemes, is termed as RAID. The basic strategy used in RAID is to replace the large capacity disk drive with multiple smaller capacity disks. there are several RAID levels. RAID 0 is for striping: Applications requiring high performance for non critical data. RAID 1 is for Mirroring : (Typical applications) System drives; critical files. ther are 6 RAID levels may be its in the form of disks overlaping one upon the another. With this background can any one give detailed, pictorial form of RAID Thank you, Suman (MCA student)


Which method of disk writing does RAID 5 uses?

parity
