What is Intel Matrix RAID
Posted in Computer Network Support by manyuRAID disk arrays is to use two or more physical hard drive to collaborate as a logical disk drive to use, through different ways of collaborating to improve the performance of all aspects of the disk subsystem, such as storage capacity, access speed and data security, and so on. More common are currently using RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 0 +1, RAID 5, etc., RAID 0 can be multiplied to improve hard disk read and write speed, but as long as one of the hard disk is damaged, can result in all data loss.
Matrix RAID is the Intel chipset-specific disk array technology, Matrix RAID mode data storage format is as follows: two hard drives each of the first half is used to create RAID 0, is mainly used for storing pairs of read and write speed-sensitive operating system files , the application file and virtual memory files, the rest of the two hard drives were used to create RAID 1, is mainly used to store more sensitive to the safety of the users personal files and important data. If one hard disk fails, RAID 0 data although it may be lost, but the data in RAID 1, but it will be preserved. Using Intel Matrix RAID technology, we are only two hard drives, low-cost inputs, you can benefit from RAID 0 +1, high-performance and data security, very suitable for ordinary home users.
