Chapter 8 Disk Array (RAID)
Purpose
A disk array is a data storage virtualization technology that combines multiple physical disk drives
into a single logical unit. Also known as a “RAID”, an array stores data over multiple HDDs to
provide enough redundancy so that data can be recovered if one disk fails. Data is distributed
across the drives in one of several ways called "RAID levels", based the redundancy and
performance required.
Disk arrays are supported by DS-9600NI-I Series device only.
