- 초록
- Redundant arrays of inexpensive disks (RAID) offer fault tolerance against disk failures. However a storage system having more disks suffers from less reliability and performance. A RAID architecture tolerating multiple disk failures shows severe performance degradation in comparison to the RAID Level 5 due to the complexity of implementation. We present a new RAID architecture that tolerates at least three disk failures and offers similar throughput to the RAID Level 5. We call it the hierarchical RAID, which is hierarchically composed of RAID Levels. Furthermore, we formally introduce the mean-time-to-data-loss (MTTDL) of traditional RAID and the hierarchical RAID using Markov process for detailed comparison.
