ISP Information:
This is similar to RAID 3 in that an extra drive is used to store all parity information. However, data is striped by drive sector instead of by bits or bytes, so that read operations are faster. This RAID type is not often used.

RAID 4 - In article , hancock4@bbs.cpcn.com(Lisa Hancock) wrote: Someone explained how VoIP (voice over Internet) isn't paying its share of the costs by the following analogy. Not knowing much about this, I'll leave it others to judge its validity. Imagine two grocery stores, A & B, located across a street from each other. "A" sells soda pop at 50c a can on a shelf. "B" sells chilled soda pop from a refrigerated display case at 75c a can. It was found that customers seeking a chilled soda would buy it from "A" at 50c, then go over and put it in the refrigerator at "B" to cool it. Thus, "B" ended up selling its competitor's product -- and extra expense -- but without the revenue.This seems like a very flawed analogy. First, B could charge for use ofa refrigerator (how many grocery stores really allow people to come inand put random products in the fridge?). Second, chilled soda is avalue-added product, and the value is in time -- you don't have to waitfor the soda to cool down (who wants to buy a can of soda and wait anhour to drink it?). Our telecom director emphasizes that the Internet is NOT free, and VoIP represents an additional expense. Just because the end consumer pays a flat rate (or nothing at all in the case of employees) doesn't mean that a service is free.In what way is VoIP an "additional" expense? If you're callinganother VoIP user, it's just an Internet-based application, and it'sno more additional than HTTP or SMTP is. If you're calling someonewith a POTS phone, you eventually have to go through a gateway run byyour VoIP provider; they have to pay for those phone lines, and theycharge their customers for the privilege of using them. They purchasethese lines in bulk at a flat rate, and can then pass that flat rateon to their customers.Barry Margolin, barmar@alum.mit.eduArlington, MA*** PLEASE post questions in newsgroups, not directly to me ***
