Copy Volume

  • With the development of dynamic disk, users would be familiar with dynamic volume. It is the storage area which can be located in one or more disks. There are 5 types of volumes, namely:
    Simple volume: it is created on one dynamic disk (similar with basic partition).
    Spanned volume: it is made of spaces on multiple dynamic disks and does not have performance improvement and fault-tolerant ability.
    Striped volume: it is also created on multiple dynamic disks and can enhance data read-write performance.
    Mirrored volume: it is used to make mirror image from one disk to another disk, but disk space use ratio is 50%.
    RAID-5 volume: it is created on the condition that there must be 3 disks at least, and all disks should provide the same space. It owns extremely high fault-tolerant ability and can promote read-write speed to a certain extent.

    From the above introduction, we can see dynamic volume not only can enhance data read-write performance but owns fault-tolerant competence. Therefore, it is a good choice to store important data on volume. Nevertheless, we can not say data stored on volume are absolutely safe, and we should copy volume in case of data loss.
