RAID Lite Performance

RAID Lite has been found to provide leading edge performance. The results of ANDATACO's extensive benchmark testing have been summarized in the tables below. For further information regarding I/O performance, please refer to the RAID Lite Application Notes document. (Also presented in ANDATACO's RAID section on the World Wide Web.)

The following table notes the highest transfer rates obtained by RAID level. A brief description of the RAID levels have also been included for your convenience.

Again, we see that we achieve the best performance overall using RAID level 6 due to its striping without parity coupled with mirroring.
