Right. That is for the "near" algorithm. It is possible to do different kinds of layouts if you like too (e.g. the "far" and "offset" algorithms). These are also explained in the wiki page, I think. For some great RAID information, also see: http://www.snia.org/sites/default/files/SNIA_DDF_Technical_Position_v2.0.pdf brassow On Dec 12, 2012, at 12:50 PM, Kks Kbase wrote: > Hey, > > Great!
