The Intel HostRAID Configurations
The following types of Intel's HostRAID configurations are supported:
RAID 0 (Data Striping): this writes data in parallel, interleaved ("striped") sections
of two hard drives. Data transfer rate is doubled over using a single disk.
RAID 1 (Data Mirroring): an identical data image from one drive is copied to another
drive. The second drive must be the same size or larger than the first drive.
RAID 10 (Striping & Mirroring): RAID 0 and 1 schemes are combined (without
parity information) to get the benefits of both.
RAID 5: both data and parity information are striped and mirrored across three
or more hard drives.
The Intel Matrix Storage
The Intel Matrix Storage, supported by the IOH-36D, allows the user to create
RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 10 and RAID 5 sets by using only six identical hard disk
drives. The Intel Matrix Storage Technology creates two partitions on each hard
disk drive and generate a virtual RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 10 and RAID 5 sets. It
also allows you the change the HDD partition size without any data.
