Based on your suggestion and the review results of referees, we have made the following modifications to our paper: 1. The title of paper is changed to “Optimal Striping in RAID Architecture”. We think this title is more suitable and clearer. 2. The references are updated to reflect the latest results related to this paper. Of 11 references, 6 references are dated 1993 or after. The discussions for out-of-date researches are discarded. 3. The analysis is re-arranged to let it more complete and self-contained. The theoretical optimal stripe unit size based on our model is also given out in the figure with the comparison of the experimental results. 4. The paper is carefully checked for all the grammar errors and typos. Attached is the revised paper in PDF format with figure and tables. I would like to hear from you about the final decision about our paper. For future correspondence, please contact me at: Dr. Hai Jin Internet and Cluster Computing Lab.
