50%
Provides convenient low-cost
data redundancy for smaller
systems and servers

50%
High read performance and
medium write performance with
data protection for up to 2-drive
failures
Useable storage capacity
equals total capacity of all
drives in the array minus
two
Fast database and
application servers which
need performance and data
protection

67-94%
High read performance, and
medium write performance with
data protection with a single
drive failure

Data archives, and ideal
for application that require
data protection
