RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks)

For optimal performance when configuring drives as a RAID volume, Dell Technologies recommends drive models that are identical.

RAID 0 (Striped, Performance) volumes benefit from higher performance when drives are matched because the data is split across multiple drives: any I/O operations with block sizes larger than the stripe size splits the I/O and become constrained by the slowest of the drives. For RAID 0 I/O operations where block sizes are smaller than the stripe size, whichever drive the I/O operation targets determine the performance, which increases variability and results in inconsistent latencies. This variability is particularly pronounced for write operations, and it can be problematic for applications that are latency sensitive. One such example of this is any application that performs thousands of random writes per second in small block sizes.

RAID 1 (Mirrored, Data Protection) volumes benefit from higher performance when drives are matched because the data is mirrored across multiple drives: all I/O operations must be performed identically to both drives, thus variations in drive performance when the models are different, results in the I/O operations completing only as fast as the slowest drive. While this does not suffer the variable latency issue in small random I/O operations as with RAID 0 across heterogeneous drives, the impact is nonetheless large because the higher performing drive becomes limited in all I/O types. One of the worst examples of constrained performance here is when using unbuffered I/O. To ensure that writes are fully committed to nonvolatile regions of the RAID volume, unbuffered I/O bypasses cache (for example by using the Force Unit Access bit in the NVMe protocol) and the I/O operation will not complete until all the drives in the RAID volume have completed the request to commit the data. This kind of I/O operation completely negates any advantage of a higher performing drive in the volume.

RAID 5 provides better performance by using data striping and protection through parity. The disadvantage of RAID 5 is that rebuilding a large RAID 5 volume requires a longer time. The following are the key features of RAID 5:

Requires at least three drives.
Data is available even if one of the drives present in the volume fails. The failed drive must be replaced, and the volume must be rebuilt for the data to be accessible.
The total capacity is N-1, where N is the total capacity of the drives in the array. For example, if you use three 1 TB drives in a RAID 5 array, the total volume size is 2 TB.

RAID 10 is a stripe of mirrors that combines the features of RAID 0 and RAID 1. As the blocks are striped and mirrored, the performance and redundancy are higher. The disadvantage of RAID 10 is that it is more expensive than other RAID levels, with a higher number of drives required. The following are the key features of RAID 10:

Requires a minimum of four drives. Only an even number of drives can be used, and an odd number of drives are not possible.
The total volume capacity is half the sum of individual drive capacity. For example, when you use four drives of 1 TB, you get a RAID 10 volume of 2 TB.

Care must be taken to match not only the drive vendor, capacity, and class, but also the specific model. Drives from the same vendor, with the same capacity, and even within the same class, can have different performance characteristics for certain types of I/O operations. Thus, matching by model ensures that the RAID volumes are consisted of a homogeneous array of drives that deliver all the benefits of a RAID volume without incurring the additional penalties when one or more drives in the volume are lower performing.

Precision 7960 Tower supports RAID with more than one hard drive configuration.

Disk Coercion :

Intel VROC family of product provides support for Disk Coercion. When a RAID volume is created, this feature analyzes the hard drives and automatically adjusts (round down) the capacity of the disks to 95% of the smallest hard drive. This allows for the variances in the hard drive capacities from different vendors.

The VROC UI either Windows VROC Application UI or CLI tool for manufacturing provides you with an option to manually override to allow you to use all available disk space.
