- Self-Adaptive Two-Dimensional RAID Arrays
- This paper proposes increasing the survivability of data stored in two-dimensional RAID arrays by letting these arrays reorganize themselves whenever they detect a disk failure. This reorganization will rebalance as much as possible the redundancy level of all stored data, thus reducing the potential impact of additional disk failures. It...

- Interplay of Energy and Performance for Disk Arrays Running Transaction Processing Workloads
- The growth of business enterprises and the emergence of the Internet as a medium for data processing has led to a proliferation of applications that are server-centric. The power dissipation of such servers has a major consequence not only on the costs and environmental concerns of power generation and delivery,...

- Undetected Disk Errors in RAID Arrays
- Though remarkably reliable, disk drives do fail occasionally. Most failures can be detected immediately; moreover, such failures can be modeled and addressed using technologies such as RAID Redundant Arrays of Independent Disks. Unfortunately, disk drives can experience errors that are undetected by the drive - which the paper refers to...

- Does fragmentation affect SANs, NAS, and RAID?
- The perception that fragmentation does not affect SANs, NAS, and RAID is incorrect. Disk arrays improve I/O performance, but they aren't invulnerable to fragmentation. This white paper explains the relationship between the logical disk with which the operating system interacts and the physical drive array, and shows why arrays are...

- High-Performance RAID-6: Why and How
- RAID 5 systems are commonly deployed for data protection in most business environments. However, RAID 5 systems only tolerate a single drive failure or unrecoverable media error before losing data. The advent of low-cost SATA drives is prompting RAID vendors to use them in arrays with larger numbers of disks...

- Understanding RAID
- This paper described various types of disk arrays, referred to by the acronym RAID. The basic idea of RAID was to combine multiple small, inexpensive disk drives into an array of disk drives which yields performance exceeding that of a Single Large Expensive Drive SLED. Additionally, this array of drives...
