Abstract

A RAID distributed parity generation system includes a chassis housing a RAID subsystem coupled to storage devices. The RAID subsystem receives a write instruction including new primary data for a subset of the storage devices that it uses to generate first intermediate parity data that it provides in a parity data storage device. The RAID engine then causes a first primary data storage device that is not in the subset to generate second intermediate parity data using its first primary data and respective second primary data in second primary data storage device(s) that are not in the subset, and provide the second intermediate parity data in the first primary data storage device. The RAID subsystem then causes the parity data storage device to generate final parity data using the first intermediate parity data and the second intermediate parity data.
