Overview: RAID (Redundant Array of Inexpensive or Independent Disks) is an important component for servers on a critical enterprise or workgroup network. RAID provides crash-proof hard drive systems. RAID technology makes data more accessible by preventing downtime due to a hardware failure. RAID systems can sustain several bad sectors and even whole disk failures, continue running, and all the while being transparent to the end-user.
