Hi All People, Merry X'mas
I have some further RAID questions to ask : 1) Can ATA-133 hard drive be used on RAID controller available on market such RAID 0, 1, 0+1 etc. with cable for ATA100/ATA133. No special designed controller is needed ? 2) RAID 0 If I have 6 discs and the controller has only 2 channels. How to make connection ? 1 master and 2 slaves for each channel ? Or need a controller with at least 3 channels 3) RAID 1 a) Question same as RAID 0, about discs connection : in order to achieve two concurrent separate reads per mirrored pair or two duplicate writes per mirrored pair ? b) What does it mean "One Write or two Reads possible per mirrored pair" 4) RAID 3 to my understanding : being very high read and write data transfer rate a) Controller design is fairly complex : is it awailable on market ? Not ordered made component ? b) Connect question for 3 hard discs c) What does it mean "Low ratio of ECC (Parity) disks to data disks means high efficiency" ? Thanks in advance. B.R. Stephen Liu
