Abstract:
Described herein are embodiments of a process for efficiently allocating RAID stripes across an array of disks (e.g., SSDs). In some embodiments, the process can be used to allocate RAID stripes across a “heterogeneous” storage array (i.e., an array of different sized disks). Also described herein are embodiments of a storage system that utilize said processing.
