What is RAID 60 (6+0)?

RAID 60 (6+0) is a multilevel disk set, composed of RAID 6 sets aggregated at a higher level into a RAID 0 array. A RAID set offers redundancy and can withstand the loss of up to two disks in each parity set. RAID 60 arrays are more reliable than RAID 50 arrays thanks to the extra parity disk in RAID 60.

What is the raidraid 0 feature?

RAID 0 combines two or more drives to increase performance and capacity, but provides no fault tolerance. A single drive failure will result in the loss of all data on the array.

How many drives are required for a RAID 5 array?

At least three drives are required. RAID 5 can sustain the loss of a single drive. In the event of a drive failure, data from the failed drive is reconstructed from parity striped across the remaining drives. As a result, both read and write performance are severely affected while a RAID 5 array is in a degraded state.

How many types of RAID setup does the calculator support?

The calculator supports over the 10 major types of RAID setups. Various types of data units are supported for input, and while the cost is indicated in U.S. dollars, you can enter any currency and get the same one in the ouput since the RAID calculator software does not do any currency conversions.
