TRIPING storage policy the DAS200 Storage creates a single virtual volume that is Striped across both hard drives with a storage capacity that is equal to the sum of both hard disk drives It is possible to set any node within a cascaded configuration to STRIPING although there is no performance benefit when using multiple layers of striping En af reer ere eee Lie Virtual STRIPING volume Capacity is Drive A plus DriveB Steel Vine Port 0 Port 1 ks Pr 4 Striping across disks Figure STRIPING storage policy sample configuration 1 5 4 MIRRORING SAFE The MIRRORING storage policy stores all data in duplicate on separate drives to protect against data loss due to drive failure One drive mirrors the other at all times equivalent to RAID 1 Every write operation goes to both drives MIRRORING provides the highest level of data protection for critical data that you cannot afford to lose if a hard drive fails but halves the amount of storage capacity because all data must be stored twice The resulting storage capacity of the virtual MIRRORING volume will be equivalent to the size of one hard drive if both drives are the same or the smaller of the two drives if they are different If one drive fails the MIRRORING volume is still usable but it is in a vulnerable state because its mirrored hard drive is inaccessible When the offline drive comes back online the appliance begins a rebuild process immediately to restore data r
