Abstract
The disclosure presents examples of a RAID storage system, method and computer program product where a stripe is logically partitioned into two or more sub-stripes and at least one RAID erasure code is applied to each sub-stripe independently of any other of the sub-stripe(s). Consequently, in some of these examples, a larger packet size may be used than if the stripe had not been partitioned. A larger packet size may in some cases allow for accelerated encoding and/or decoding.
