Abstract

In this paper, we have compared several levels of redundant array of independent or inexpensive disk (RAID) and a brief of redundant array of distributed disk (RADD) in the storage environment. RAID was originally developed at a time when HARD DISK was still very expensive and less reliable than they are today. We will discuss architecture and utilities of each technique or levels like RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 2, RAID 3, RAID 4, RAID 5 and RAID 6 based on our literature review. We have discussed the performance of various levels and also established the formulae for calculating the capacity of different level or identified the various factors impacting the disk drive performance and issues for improving the functioning of the storage infrastructure.
