Boost Enterprise Reliability and Performance: Choosing the Right RAID for Disk Arrays
Source: Architecture Technology Alliance

Enterprise disk arrays are storage systems composed of controllers and expansion enclosures, with controllers (multi‑controller architecture) and expansion frames that can be scaled as needed.

Behind each controller are many hard drives managed in expansion cabinets, connected to the controller via SAS cables.

Disk arrays provide higher reliability and performance. Selecting the appropriate RAID level and configuring the array can improve data reliability and performance. When choosing a disk array, consider capacity, performance, reliability, scalability, and customize the configuration for optimal cost‑performance.
