RAID1

For example, if disk failure occurs in different drive groups, a RAID10 configuration can

tolerate multiple drive failures. In each RAID1 drive group, data is mirrored to a counterpart

disk drive. Data remains intact if one disk drive should fail in each drive group.

Consistency Check

The consistency check operation verifies the correctness of the data in virtual drives that use

RAID levels 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60. RAID0 does not provide data redundancy. In a system with

parity, check consistency means calculating the data on one drive and comparing the results to

the contents of the parity drive.
