i read the Faq but i didnt get the how the Raid 5 work.
just to make sure im on the right side,
raid 0 is performance and low security, for example lets say you have a 5 mb file, it will split into 2 2.5 mb file and save on both disks at the same time, this will give better performance for writing, and reading as will because it will read from both disks at the same time, if one disks fail, all data will be lost.
Raid 1, security basically one hard disk is a mirror of the other, every time u save a file, it will be copied to both disks at the same time, this might decrease writing performance, however will increase the reading performance because it will read from both hard disks, if one disk fails, u have the data in the other.
Raid 5, how does this work? ok u have 3 hard disks, are 2 of them used for performance while having a 3rd one just a mirror of both, so if one fails u can use the 3rd hard disk but will need to re-set up raid 0 or 1 or it works different?
