1. READ PoL icy The read policies determine if the controller reads sequential sectors of the logical drive Options are ReadAhead The controller reads sequential sectors of the logical drive Read ahead policy can improve system performance if the data is written to sequential sectors Read Cache The controller reads cache information to determine if the data is available in the cache before retrieving the data from the disk This can provide faster read performance NoCache The controller retrieves data directly from the disk and not from the cache Werire PoLicy Write policies determine if the controller sends a write request completion signal once the data is in the cache or until after it has been written to disk WriteBack The controller sends a write request completion signal as soon as the data Is in the controller cache but has not yet been written to disk Write back caching might improve performance but also entails a data security risk since a system failure could prevent the data from being written to disk and data might be lost Other applications can also experience problems when it is assumed that the requested data is available on the disk WriteThru The controller sends a write request completion signal only after the data is written to the disk Write through caching provides better data security than write back caching but lower performance REBUILDING A LOGICAL DRIVE When a physical drive within a logic
