Abstract
A method and system of optimizing the performance, capacity and data redundancy in a storage system by defining the LBA range on each storage element managing that corresponding range (slice) on each device using a data protection method optimized for the performance and level of data protection required. The creation of such a storage array along with the replacement of failed elements and the expansion of the capacity through the addition of additional elements is managed is an automatic and transparent manner.
