Basic: Software RAID
Software RAID offers a subset of the features delivered in hardware RAID and is
delivered as part of an operating system. Software RAID relies on system resources,
processors, and memory. Software RAID is typically used for economical reasons or for
mirroring an operating system. Intel sells 8 different software RAID keys including:

0/1/5/10.
Entry-Level: I/O Controller-based Hardware RAID
Entry-level RAID offers hardware RAID 0/1/10/1E for budget oriented solutions
where performance and mainstream features are not pertinent. Intel’s entry-level
RAID modules are also excellent for use with JBODs when combined with accessory
AXXRCVT8788. The following solutions are recommended for most customers desiring
an entry-level solution:

SMB (Mid-Tier): I/O Controller-based with Advanced Firmware
Many servers targeted at Small and Medium Business (SMB) require advanced RAID
and storage management, but do not require Mainstream (Intelligent Hardware RAID)
performance. For these customers, Intel offers a unique blend of our Mainstream RAID
software stack on less expensive I/O Processor-based hardware. The following product
is recommended:

Hybrid refers to RAID which is firmware based (not OS driver based like Software
RAID), but uses system resources for parity calculations.
