About Dual Data Redundancy
One unique (though rarely occurring) feature of RAID 0+1 is dual fault tolerance.
In some cases, two drives can fail simultaneously yet the array still maintains the
integrity of data. There are six combinations in which two of the four drives can
fail. The PDC20319 SATA RAID Controller protects the data array in four of
those cases.
Assume the drives are configured as follows:
•
CH indicates channels on the PDC20319 SATA RAID Controller.
•
A/B indicates which striped pair the drive belongs to.
•
1/2 indicates which part of stripe data.
CH 1
CH 2
CH 3
CH 4
Drive A1
Drive A2
Drive B1
Drive B2
Under RAID 0+1, the array maintains data integrity if any 1, 2 combination
survives.
