VCE Vblock™ Systems Series 700 Architecture Overview
Storage layer hardware
• The RAID protection for the tiers in each pool. The following table describes each supported RAID
protection level.
Note:
The RAID protection level for each of the three separate tier-related pools can be different.
More than three pools can exist but only three pools and tiers can exist in a single auto-tiering
FAST policy.
RAID protection level Description
RAID 1
•
A set of mirrored drives.
• Offers the best overall performance of the three supported RAID protection levels.
• Offers robust protection. Can sustain double-drive failures that are not in the same
mirror set.
•
Offers the best write performance since only two IOs are required to perform a single
write.
•
Lowest economy of the three supported RAID levels since usable capacity is only
50% of raw capacity.
•
Supported on EFD, FC, and SATA drives.
RAID 5
•
Block-level striping with a single parity block, where the parity data is distributed
across all the drives in the set.
•
Offers the best mix of performance, protection, and economy.
• Has a higher write performance penalty than RAID 1 because multiple IOs are
required to perform a single write.
•
With single parity, can sustain a single drive failure with no data loss. Vulnerable to
data loss or unrecoverable read errors on a track during a drive rebuild.
•
Highest economy of the three supported RAID levels. Usable capacity is 80% of raw
capacity.
•
EMC best practice for EFD and FC drives. Supported on SATA drives but not
recommended..
RAID 6
•
Block-level striping with two parity blocks, distributed across all of the drives in the
set.
•
Offers increased protection and read performance comparable to RAID 5.
•
Has a significant write performance penalty because multiple IOs are required to
perform a single write.
•
Economy is very good. Usable capacity is 75% of raw capacity or better.
• EMC best practice for SATA drives. Supported on FC drives but not on EFD drives.
There are RAID packs for each RAID protection level/tier type combination. The RAID levels dictate the
number of drives that are included in the packs. The following table lists RAID protection levels and the
number of drives in the packs for each level:
RAID protection level Number of drives per RAID pack
RAID 1
8 (4 + 4)
RAID 5
Should always be in quantities of 8 drives
4 (3 + 1) * 2
or
8 (7 + 1). Requires a minimum of 8 DAEs.
RAID 6 8 (6 drives + 2 parity)
or
16 (14 drives + 2 parity)
