Hi

I am a newbie to RAID. is strip size and block size same. How is it
calculated. is it 64Kb by default. what should be the strip size ?

I have referred to
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raid5#RAID_5_parity_handling. How is
parity handled in case of RAID 5.

Please explain me with an example.

Thanks and Regards,

Kaushal
