RAID Performance on SAN Volumes
This section describes and illustrates in detail the RAID performance of a volume with SATA
disks and the RAID performance of a volume with SAS disks.
disks and the RAID performance of a volume with SAS disks.
The data and graphs in this section are based on two volumes, one with 12 SATA disks and
one with 12 SAS disks, and a transfer of 200 GB data over iSCSI.

A hybrid volume offers
performance that approaches that

10 SAS volume, but it
should not be considered an
equivalent. When the
performance needs are moderate
and large capacity is required, a
hybrid volume is viable only when
paired with SATA disks that are
configured in a RAID
equivalent. When the

use RAID 5+0 for file serving,
