swidth in RAID

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I understand swidth should = #data disks.

And the docs say for RAID 6 of 8 disks, that means 6.

But parity is distributed and you actually have 8 disks/spindles working for you and a bit of parity on each.

So shouldn't swidth equal disks in raid when its concerning distributed parity raid?
