What is RAID 9 ?

I have seen a few websites making references to RAID 9. Apparently they have used a Raid 9 configuration to test and benchmark an overclocked setup. Does anyone have any ideas what it is, or if it even does exist?!

-Thanks
 
Never heard of it. It's not a standard level, so if it exists it's a proprietary level that some company created themselves. There are a few very highly complex non-standard RAID levels that companies have come up with for enterprise applications.
 
RAID 9 is a cheat code you can type into Windows Disk Manager to increase sequential read speeds. 🙂

On what websites have you seen RAID 9 mentioned? I googled for it and found nothing.
 
im not sure but i believe it is somewhat of a combination of raid 0 and 1
ie it stripes and clones; fast and reliable..
i also think it may require 4HDs...
not sure...but if thats indeed what it is, i think thats pretty coo...

That's either RAID10 or RAID01 (one is a RAID0 of two two-disk RAID1s, the other is a RAID1 of two two-disk RAID0s). Never heard of RAID9. Either it's proprietary, or a typo. 😛
