The Importance of RAID Recovery

RAID is short for redundant array of inexpensive disks. In storage technology, it is a way of storing data on two or more disk drives while creating a logical storage unit. It increases performance and fault tolerance because of some data redundancy. Nowadays many motherboards are equipped with built-in RAID. However, it is not necessary for personal computers. RAID can duplicate data among hard disk drives, which is more critical in corporate environments.

There are several types of RAID commonly known as RAID levels. Level 0 until Level 6 RAID are distinct to each other by each level’s data placement patterns and degrees of redundancy.
