Either you're very young, or don't read what I type, maybe both. ;) RAID 10 has been around for 15+ years. It is not unique to Linux mdraid. The "alternate layouts" of mdraid are unique to Linux/mdraid, but RAID 10 is not unique to mdraid. > For RAID1+0, I think it is covered by the DDF standard RAID 10 and RAID 1+0 are the same thing by two different names. It's not covered in the DDF. I just spent a paragraph explaining why it's not in the DDF, and you agreed with me for Pete's sake! Now you say you think it _is_ in the DDF? I'm getting dizzy from the running in circles... I suggest you actually read the DDF and other documents available on the SNIA website, as I have. -- Stan -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
