RAID 1+0 (RAID10) RAID 0+1 (RAID01) - Mirroring and Striping
  • RAID10/RAID 1+0 is a stripe across a mirror while RAID01/RAID 0+1 is a mirror across a stripe
  • Both of these RAID configurations require four drives for implmentation
  • RAID10/RAID 1+0 has the same fault tolerance as a RAID1 configuration (i.e., the data is mirrored so not much is required for recovery), RAID 01/RAID 0+1 has the same fault tolerance as RAID5 (single drive failure)
  • Both read and write performance is very good
