Abstract
A disk array system and a data processing method are provided. The data processing method is applied to the disk array system. The disk array system is a redundancy array of independent disk 0 (RAID 0) system The disk array system includes a plurality of disks. The data processing method includes: receiving a reading command; determining whether to divide the reading command to a plurality of reading command segments according to the reading command; and assigning the reading command to a corresponding disk of the disks to read data stored in the corresponding disk accordingly when it is determined that the reading command is not divided.

A disk array system, comprising:
- a plurality of disks;
- and
- a control device electrically connected to the disks, receiving a reading command and determining whether to divide the reading command to a plurality of reading command segments according to the reading command,
- wherein when the control device determines not to divide the reading command, the control device assigns the reading command to a corresponding disk of the disks to read data stored in the corresponding disk according to the reading command, and
- when the control device determines to divide the reading command, the control device divides the reading command to the reading command segments, and the reading command segments are assigned to the disks, respectively, to make the disks read the data according to the reading command segments.
A data processing method, applied to a disk array system, wherein the disk array system is a RAID 0 system, and the disk array system includes a plurality of disks, the data processing method comprising following steps:
- receiving a reading command;
- determining whether to divide the reading command to a plurality of reading command segments according to the reading command;
- and
- assigning the reading command to a corresponding disk of the disks to read data stored in the corresponding disk accordingly when the reading command is not divided.
