GigaRAID (IT8212) ATA RAID Controller USER’S MANUAL

Totally, there are five configurations supported:

RAID level/Type Configurations Number of disks needed

RAID 0 Disk Striping 2 or 3 or 4

JBOD Disk Concatenation 2 or 3 or 4

Setup Array for RAID 0:

The GigaRAID (IT8212) ATA RAID Controller allows you to use two, three or four

hard drives to set a RAID 0 (stripe) array. All the hard drives attached on the

controller will be set as array 0. When you create a striped array, files are broken into

64k (stripe size) and stripes are sent to each disk in the array. Selecting RAID 0 can

increase data transfer rate and allow the best overall performance characteristics

because of giving up redundancy.
