With a 4 drive RAID array (Redundant Array of Independent Disks Array) – like one I recently tried to test – RAID 5 will give you 3 drives worth of capacity, saving 1 drive for parity data.
Infortrend’s EonStor S16F-R1430 RAID array subsystems play an important role in this achievement.
In a first, 128GB solid-state disk (SSD) Flash memory works together in a RAID array with the 500GB SATA drive to boost performance when working with large files, which are stored on the SSD for extremely fast access.
Other specs include an Intel Core 2 Duo T9600 processor, 512MB NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GT graphics chipset, and two hard drives; a 128GB SSD set up in a RAID array with a 500GB SATA hard drive.
