What else can I help you with?
Which is more stable raid implemented by windows or raid implemented by hardware?
Raid implemented by Hardware is more stable than RAID implemented by Windows
What additional hardware will be necessary to implement two identical hard drive?
Hardware will be RAID PCIe / PCIx RAID hardware controller but The hardware RAID is often the motherboard RAID controller or a separate RAID card.
What hardware is needed to implement hardware RAID for fault tolerance?
raid card
How do you configure the raid?
It depends on which RAID you mean: software or hardware. For hardware RAID read manual for your motherboard, for software RAID read software help.
What are differences between software raids and hardware raids?
Hardware raid is supported by hardware and usually more stable and achieve better performance. Software raid does not need raid hardware support and can be used on machines without raid options. In the same time stability and performance of software raid is not as high as hardware. Software raid is usually recommended for low budget machines (it's a part of many linux-based system, and it's free of charge) if you are not able to afford a good hardware raid.
What is the difference between hardware raid and software raid?
Name says major difference between both. by the way Software RAID is created using feature provided by Operating System or any special software, but Hardware RAID is created using Hardware RAID controller Card. When you create RAID you are adding overheads to read and write operations. If you create software RAID and your server is too busy or you have many read and write operations you will see there is impact on performance. When you create HARDWARE RAID you will use dedicated controller with processor and some cache. This will not create overhead for your OS and you will find better performance. Software RAID will save some money for you but Hardware RAID will provide you value addition.
Microsoft recommends only using software RAID for the Windows volume. is this true or false?
True. Microsoft recommends using software RAID primarily for the Windows volume to ensure compatibility and support with the operating system. Hardware RAID can introduce complexities that may not be fully compatible with Windows features, particularly in terms of system recovery and troubleshooting. Therefore, for best practices, it's advised to rely on software RAID for Windows installations.
Installing a hardware RAID for best performance?
All hard drives in an array should be identical in brand, size, speed, and other features. Also, if Windows is to be installed on a hard drive that is part of a RAID array, RAID must be implented before windoes is installed. As with installing any hardware, read the documentation that comes with the motherboard or RAID controller.
How do you hook up two disc drives in a raid format?
You hardware has to support RAID technology, read the manual for your motherboard. If you have Linux you can have software RAID which is slower than hardware but still can be used to for mirroring, striping and so on. In the manual should described how to create RIAD (0, 1 and so on). You can have RAID software for windows too, but it's expensive and perfomance is not that great.
Which version of raid is supported by windows xp does this raid version provide fault tolerance?
Windows XP supports spanned and striped RAID 0 volumes Hardware RAID is considered a better solution for fault tolerance than software RAID RAID 0 does not provide fault tolerance
What is true about the Palmer raid?
They targeted immmigrants
What is the role of a disk array RAID controller?
It's a device that manages the physical hard drives installed into you computer. Since it's very common when used in hardware RAID, it is often called a RAID controller.
