  • Perhaps it was RAID-6? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAID_6#RAID_6 It seems to be the only one with 5 discs. Commented Oct 8, 2010 at 20:50
  • @FrustratedWithFormsDesigner you can have more than the drives that are shown in the wiki for RAID's... For example a RAID-0 can have 3, 4, 5 or more drives. Most common raid is RAID-5 which is a RAID-6 only there is only 1 parity. That would be the best assumption. Commented Oct 8, 2010 at 23:55
