RAID0
By Gabriel Torres on January 6, 2006 Page 1 of 1

Redundand Array of Independent Disks, Level 0

RAID0 is a RAID system that increases storage system performance. It is based on a technique called data stripping, where the files aren’t stored in just one hard disk drive; they are split and each part of the file is written on a different hard drive. Since each hard drive will store just a small part of the file and not the whole file, the storage is done faster.

This system requires at least two hard disk drives.
