Server disk partition

How to manage server disk partition with server partition magic - MiniTool Partition Wizard Server Edition. How to partition the server disk you have just bought?

There are two 250GSATA hard wares and group servers. How much G partition is proper? How to do disk embattle? Disk embattle is the Chinese name of RAID. That is to say, many physical disks comprise a logical disk. Now, the usually used edition of RAID is RAID0RAID1RAID0+1/1+0RAID5

There is an example of two disks of 80GB.

It is of high security to enhance the performance of system, but the cost is relatively higher, so it can only be applied on servers.
RAID0 connects two disks into one logical disk and we get a logical disk of 120GB whose data writes separately on two disks which are read at the same time. In this way, it can exponentially improve the performance of storage subsystem. However, the safety is poor for once one hard disk is broken, all the data is lost. RAID1 divides two disks into two parts, one is for data storage and the other is for backup. It means that 80 GB is for data storage and the other 80GB for backup. It has the better safety but poorer disk space usage of 50%
As for RAID0+1/1+0 and RAID5, they can be combined when there are four or more hard disks. RAID1+0/0+1 integrates the advantages of RAID0 and RAID1. Although it has both good safety and performance it has too much cost generally used for server.

There are two kinds of disk interfaces: PATA and SATA. Of which, PATA disk is the disk we often called Parallel ATA Disk whose highest transport rate is 133Mb/s while SATA is serial port. The highest transport rate of current main products is 150Mb/s and the next standard is 300Mb/s (SATA2). But the inner transport rate of hard disk is only 60-70Mb/s, so SATA port cannot give performance boost. However, SATA has only 7 data wires which has higher transport rate than that of 80 PATA and better heat output in chassis
PATA, a 40 pin of rectangle port, can support all main boards. While SATA, a 7 pin of L port is supported by main board from 865 stage. As for cashes, its size has nothing to do with main board but close relationship with performance. Cash of 8M is obviously better than that of 2M and higher price.

Users can install the OS and do partition management if the disk is in simple group but not RAID. Here, MiniTool Partition Wizard Server Edition, a professionally server partition management software is recommended for you. You can do disk partition with ease by this software and check partition clearly. This software is also able to change dynamic disk into basic disk and can help.
