	Read "A Case for Redundant Arrays of Inexpensive Disks (RAID)" by David Patterson, Garth Gibson and Randy Katz. Comment on the following: What was the main motivation for RAID in this paper? Did prediction of processor performance and disk capacity hold? In the proposed designs of RAID 1 to RAID 5, how was performance and capacity balanced? What were some of the open issues? Which were significant? In retrospect, what do you think were important contributions? What did the authors get wrong?
