DDR SDRAM

Double Data Rate Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory. This is a

type of SDRAM that provides data throughput at double the rate of

conventional SDRAM. It uses a bursting technique to predict the address of the

next memory location to be accessed and allows two data transfers on each clock

cycle.

Disk

both rotating magnetic and optical storage devices and solid-state storage

devices, or non-volatile electronic storage elements.

Disk Array

A collection of disks from one or more disk subsystems combined using a

configuration utility. The utility controls the disks and presents them to the

array operating environment as one or more logical drives.

Disk Group

A logical grouping of disks attached to a RAID controller on which one or more

virtual disks can be created.

Disk Migration

Moving a virtual disk or a hot spare from one controller to another by detaching

the physical disks and re-attaching them to the new controller.
