The standard RAID system levels are 0, 1, 3, and 5. 

You write data in stripes across the multiple hard disks of a RAID. Since multiple disks are accessed at the 

same time, disk striping enhances performance. The stripes can vary in size and are interleaved sequentially.   

The number of hard disk drives that are striped to. In a RAID with four hard disks the 

stripe width is four. 

The length of the interleaved data segments written across multiple hard disks. 

 

Example: 

Configure four hard disk drives as RAID 0 and the data is striped in segments. Segment One writes to  

HDD 1, Segment Two writes to HDD 2, and so on as below: 

HDD 1 

 

Segment One 

Segment Five  

Segment Nine 

HDD 2 

 

Segment Two 

Segment Six  

Segment Ten 

HDD 3 

 

Segment Three 

Segment Seven  

Segment Eleven 

HDD 4 

 

Segment Four 

Segment Eight  

Segment Twelve
