Supported RAID Configurations

RAID is short for Redundant Array of Independent (or Inexpensive) Disks,

which is a category of storage that employs two or more drives in

combination for fault tolerance and performance. There are a number

of RAID levels in use today such as 0, 1, 3, 5, 6 and 10. The DXi4701

uses RAID 6.

RAID 6 Configuration

RAID 6 uses block-level striping with two parity blocks distributed across

all member disks. Dual parity provided by a RAID 6 configuration

ensures that your data retains full integrity even in the event of two

hard drive failures. Since single parity RAID levels are vulnerable to data

loss until the failed drive is rebuilt: the larger the hard drive, the longer

the rebuild will take and the longer the system is vulnerable to possible

data loss.
The DXi4701 Node and Expansion modules (JBODs) use RAID 6 volumes

for data storage (see

and

DATA

- HDD slots 1–11 (data storage)

•

Hot Spare

- HDD slot 0

Note:

The hot spare drive is initially located in slot 0. If a hard drive is

replaced, the replacement drive becomes the new hot spare.
