  • Patent number: 11513742
    Abstract: The described technology is generally directed towards a virtualized dedicated hot spare storage device in a RAID-configured data storage system, in which the capacity of the dedicated spare storage device is distributed among the physical disks underlying a RAID virtual disk. A RAID controller creates a first virtual construct comprising an array of logical block addresses that maps data reads from and writes to the virtual disk to locations in the physical disks underlying the virtual disk. When hot space storage device capacity is specified, the RAID controller creates a second construct comprising another array of logical block addresses which are reserved for the distributed hot space. The virtualized dedicated hot spare storage device increases storage capacity and performance by utilizing more of the storage resources of a data storage server.
