NRAID
Disk Spanning
Figure 1 - 2 NRAID
NRAID stands for Non-RAID. The capacity of all
the drives is combined to become one logical
drive (no block striping). In other words, the
capacity of the logical drive is the total capacity of
the physical drives. NRAID does not provide
data redundancy.

JBOD
Single Drive Control
Figure 1 - 3 JBOD
JBOD stands for Just a Bunch of Drives. The
controller treats each drive as a stand-alone
disk, therefore each drive is an independent
logical drive. JBOD does not provide data
redundancy.
