Sorry do correct you Ed, but RAID 5 is not striping + mirroring, it is stripping with distributed parity, It is the best compromise when you need fault tolerance, it`s cheaper then RAID 1 (mirroring) and the fault tolerance is also ok !
You forgot RAID 4 it is stripping with parity on one Disc ! It s normally not used any longer as i know ! best wishes Chris _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
