SPAN (JBOD)
With SPAN disk a rray, the data capacity is equivalent to the sum of all hard disks
used. These hard disks can be of different sizes. The operating system treats the
hard disk d rives as if they were one hard drive.
"Spanning" means that the data is stored on a ha rd disk drive until this is full. As soon as
the hard drive is full, the data continues to be stored on the next hard disk drive in the
disk array. If one hard drive fails, the entire disk arra y is affected. SPAN (JBOD) actually
does not belong to RAID and does not support any error tolerance .
