RAID

RAID, which stands for Redundant Array of Independent Disks, is a technology used to combine multiple hard drives into one unit for improved performance, data redundancy, or both. By storing the same data on different drives, RAID protects against data loss if one drive fails. It can also enhance speed by allowing multiple drives to be accessed simultaneously. There are different RAID levels, each offering various balances of speed, redundancy, and storage efficiency. Essentially, RAID is a way to safeguard and optimize how your data is stored on hard drives.
