What is RAID 10 protection?
RAID 10 protection protects data from being lost because of a disk unit failure or because of damage to a disk. RAID 10 protection provides a level of protection comparable to device level mirroring. RAID 10 protects availability due to disk unit failure by pairing disks together into logical mirrors. Each pair of disks is considered a parity set.

What is the difference between RAID 10 and RAID parity set?

What is a parity error in a RAID-1 configuration?
A parity error reported for a RAID-1 configuration rarely means that the disk is bad. It means that the primary and secondary disk do not match. To maintain high performance, the parity from a block of data is generated for the primary disk and for the secondary disk by the Redundant Array of Independent Disks (RAID) controller.
