Data storage array method and system |
摘要 |
A method and system for reading data from a redundant array of computer data storage media elements without having to wait for a timeout in a drive in the redundant array. If the requested data is from a drive that is temporarily in a timeout, the requested data is reconstructed using other drives in the redundant array, and the reconstructed data is sent to the requester via an array controller. When the drive holding the originally requested data comes back from the timeout and responds to the original request by transmitting the original data, the array controller ignores the original data since the request has already been fulfilled by the reconstructed data.
