Microsoft® Windows NT® and Windows® 2000-based disk mirroring and duplexing implement RAID (redundant array of independent disks) features in software using any hardware compatible with the operating system. Because these are software-based solutions provided with the operating system, they offer a cost advantage.
Disk mirroring protects against media failure by maintaining a fully redundant copy of a partition on another disk. This provides protection from the downtime and expense involved in recovering lost data and restoring data from a backup storage facility. In a sense, mirroring is continual backup. Mirroring also provides some performance benefits when reading data from disks under heavy I/O loads. Windows NT–based disk mirroring and Windows 2000 mirrored volume implement RAID 1.
Disk duplexing is a form of mirroring that provides protection against controller failures (in addition to protecting against media failures) by using a different disk controller on the mirror disk.
