- Case 1: Perform [operation], update [tracking info], maintain [invariant].

RAID Levels, Optical Drives, and Graphics Technology
RAID Levels: Performance and Reliability
Penalties in writing. • RAID 4: Levels 4 and 5 of RAID use a technique called independent access. Each disk in the set operates independently, meaning separate I/O requests are addressed in parallel. In both cases, the data strips used are relatively large, and a parity strip is calculated, bit by bit, from the corresponding strips of each data disk (parity blocks).
