Message-ID: <447D9E72.3000704@tmr.com> (raw)
Where I was working most recently some systems were using RAID5E (RAID5
with both the parity and hot spare distributed). This seems to be highly
desirable for small arrays, where spreading head motion over one more
drive will improve performance, and in all cases where a rebuild to the
hot spare will avoid a bottleneck on a single drive.
Is there any plan to add this capability?
