A computer is like a biological brain. The brain uses eyes, ears, nose, and skin as input devices to obtain various information, while the computer uses keyboard, mouse, serial port, USB interface, etc. as input devices to obtain various information. The brain uses neural networks to transfer acquired information to the nerve center, while computers use various bus technologies to transfer information to the CPU for calculation.   The brain uses neural networks to transfer calculated information to "devices" such as arms, legs, muscles, etc.; and computers also use buses to transfer calculated data to external devices, such as monitors, printers, etc. The human brain can store a variety of data, and computers can also use external media to store data. From this point of view, the computer itself is an external information storage and processing tool for the human brain. The field of computer storage studies how to provide data to computers quickly and efficiently to assist in their operations. Like the history of human storage, computer storage technology has also continued to develop and grow, from early floppy disks and hard drives with only a few dozen megabytes in size to today's single hard drives with a size of 1TB, and USB flash drives with a capacity of 4GB or even 16GB. In order to pursue high speed, people make multiple disks into a RAID (Redundant Arrays of Independent Disks) system, that is, each independent disk is formed into an array to jointly store data and speed up data storage.   While pursuing high speed, the capacity problem must also be solved. The storage capacity requirements of modern computer programs have become enormous. The latest Windows Vista operating system takes up more than 6GB of disk space just after installation. Some large-scale 3D games require 2GB, 4GB, or even 8GB in size just to install the files. The database files generated by some database management programs may be several TB or even hundreds or thousands of TB in size. The traditional method of placing the hard disk in the computer chassis can no longer meet the storage capacity requirements of modern applications, which has given rise to network storage technology.   Network storage extends the storage system to the network, making the storage device a node on the network for access by other nodes. In this way, even if there is only one hard disk in the computer host, or even no hard disk, the computer can still access data on the storage device through the network. Currently, the hot technology in the field of computer storage is network storage technology, which focuses on how to provide data flow services to other nodes on the network. Based on network storage, many other related technologies can be promoted and applied.   It can be seen that the storage field is an all-encompassing field. If you do not understand computer systems, it is difficult to master storage technology.   STOR Technology Limited provides you with high-quality Raid Card, HBA Card, Hard Disk Drive, etc. such as: 05-26105-00, 05-25420-10, 05-50011-02, 05-50134-03. We provide you with higher-quality services and assured after-sales service.

RAID 5 is a redundant array of independent disks configured using disk striping with parity. Data and parity are striped evenly across all disks. Striping allows users to rebuild data in the event of a disk failure, so no one disk is the bottleneck.   RAID 5 balances reading and writing and is currently one of the most commonly used RAID methods. It has more storage space available than RAID 1 and RAID 10 configurations and provides performance comparable to RAID 0.   A RAID 5 group has a minimum of 3 HDDs, but no maximum. Because parity data is distributed across all drives, RAID 5 is considered one of the most secure RAID configurations.   RAID 5 – Stripes data using distributed parity. RAID type 5 allows Clariion to distribute parity information to reconstruct a failed disk among the disks that make up the RAID group. As with RAID 3, if a single drive in the RAID group fails, the failed disk can be rebuilt from the remaining disks in the RAID group.     How RAID 5 works The advantage of RAID 5 comes primarily from its combined use of disk striping and parity. Striping is the process of storing contiguous segments of data across different storage devices; it allows for better throughput and performance. However, disk striping alone does not make an array fault tolerant. Disk striping combined with parity provides RAID 5 with redundancy and reliability.   RAID 5 uses parity instead of mirroring for data redundancy. When data is written to a RAID 5 drive, parity is calculated and written to the drive. While mirroring maintains multiple copies of the data in each volume for use in the event of a failure, RAID 5 can rebuild a failed drive using parity data, which is not saved on a fixed single drive.   By saving data on each drive, any two drives can be combined to equal the data stored on a third drive, keeping data safe in the event of a single drive failure. Drives in RAID 5 are hot-swappable, meaning a failed HDD can be removed and replaced without downtime.   STOR Technology Limited provides you with high-quality Raid Card, HBA Card, Hard Disk Drive, etc. such as: lsi megaraid 9460 8i, 05 50077 00 9560-16i, 05 25528 04 9380-8e. We provide you with higher-quality services and assured after-sales service.

This article mainly introduces the difference between SAS and SATA in hard disk drive (HDD). SAS's interface technology is backward compatible with SATA. Specifically, they are mainly compatible at the physical layer and protocol layer.   At the physical layer, the SAS interface and the SATA interface are fully compatible, and SATA hard drives can be used directly in a SAS environment. In terms of interface, the SAS controller can directly control SATA hard drives, but SAS cannot be used directly in a SATA environment because the SATA controller cannot control SAS hard drives.   SAS consists of three types of protocols at the protocol layer, and depending on the connected device, the corresponding protocol is used for data transmission. Serial SCSI protocol is used to send SCSI commands. SCSI management protocols are used to maintain and manage attached devices. The SATA channel protocol is used to transmit data between SAS and SATA.   In terms of price, SAS hard drives (such as ST8000NM001A SAS 8TB) are generally more expensive than SATA (such as HUS728T8TALE6L4 8TB SATA) hard drives. The rotation speed of SATA hard disk is between 5400 and 7200. SAS hard drives are basically 10,000 rpm or 15,000 rpm and are equipped with rotational vibration compensation to ensure data accuracy, so they have higher reliability. SAS hard drives are used in applications where data volume is large and data availability is extremely critical.   SATA is a great technology to have in your computer if you're storing information that you don't need to use on a regular basis.
