Abstract
A plurality of arrays of storage devices, each providing dual storage device redundancy, is provided. The plurality of arrays of storage devices includes a plurality of mirrored sets of primary storage devices, each including an even number of at least two or more primary storage devices. Each of the mirrored sets of primary storage devices stores a first and a second copy of data. The plurality of arrays of storage devices also includes a secondary storage device, which is a single physical storage device that stores a third copy of the data stored on each of the plurality of mirrored sets of primary storage devices. The secondary storage device has at least the capacity to store the data stored on the plurality of mirrored sets of primary storage devices. Dual storage device redundancy preserves data if data cannot be read from one or two physical storage devices in any array.
