Disk-RAID
A RAID (redundant array of disk Indepedent) is a set of disk drives that appear as if they were logically a single disc. So the data, divided into bands, divided between two or more units. This technique enhances performance and provides a redundancy that protects against failure of one of the disks in the formation. There are implementations for different hardware and software RAID configurations, the most common RAID1, RAID5 and RAID10.
