A RAID-5 array consists of 7 disks with a 16 KB block size per disk per stripe unit. The array receives a workload of mixed small random writes (4 KB each) and large sequential writes (full-stripe writes). Each disk supports: 100 MB/s sequential throughput 200 random IOPS Assume: RAID-5 uses rotating parity Write operations are synchronous Full-stripe writes avoid read-modify-write Partial-stripe writes use read-modify-write or reconstruct-write as needed Which of the following statements about RAID-5 behavior is/are correct? (Select 1 answer — the best single choice).
