RAID 5 is a data storage virtualization technology that combines disk striping with parity for fault tolerance. It requires a minimum of three disks and distributes parity information across all disks, allowing for data recovery in case of a single disk failure. This configuration provides a balance of performance, storage efficiency, and redundancy, making it popular for server environments. However, RAID 5 may experience slower write performance due to the overhead of parity calculations.

Which raid level is best and why?

The best raid level is the highest can do. If you are at 70, then the best raid level is level 70 raids. If you are at 80, then of course the best raid level is level 80 raids. If this is not what you are wanting, make a note in the discussion area and we will try to answer it better.


What is the best RAID to use?

The best RAID configuration depends on your specific needs for performance, redundancy, and storage capacity. RAID 1 offers excellent redundancy by mirroring data across two drives, making it ideal for critical data protection. RAID 5 balances performance, redundancy, and efficient storage use by distributing data and parity across three or more drives. For maximum performance with some redundancy, RAID 10 combines the benefits of RAID 0 and RAID 1 but requires a minimum of four drives.

What level of RAID will result in two sets of disks that contain the same information?

RAID 1, RAID 1 + 0, and RAID 5, 6.


What additional hardware would be necessary to implement each of RAID 1 and RAID 5?

Essentially that just means understanding what raid one and raid 5 are. Raid one stores the data on 2 hard disks, raid 5 stores the data on 3 to 5 disks. In either of these circumstances all the hard disks must be completely identical right down to brand cache, size etc.
