RAID - Redundant Array of Independant Disks
RAID refers to a hard disk technology which can be used to
speed up data transfer and/or provide disk redundancy
through disk system fault tolerance.
RAID configurations are commonly found in data critical
applications.

Answer / praveen kumar k
RAID serves for two data storage requirements
1]Reliability
2]Performance
->Reliability-It maintains multiple copies of same data in
array of disks to make the storage fault tolerant in case of
disk failure.
->Performance-Different bits of a data component is stored
across an array of disks(bit striping) so that access time
is greatly reduced since single read time is enough to read
all the bits since they are in different disks, thus
boosting the performance.

Answer / raja
Higher Data Security: Through the use of redundancy, most
RAID levels provide protection for the data stored on the
array. This means that the data on the array can withstand
even the complete failure of one hard disk (or sometimes
more) without any data loss, and without requiring any data
to be restored from backup. This security feature is a key
benefit of RAID and probably the aspect that drives the
creation of more RAID arrays than any other. All RAID
levels provide some degree of data protection , depending
on the exact implementation, except RAID level 0 .
