RAID stands for Redundant Array of Independent Disks, which is a method of combining multiple hard drives into a single logical unit.
RAID technology provides several benefits, including improved data reliability and performance. By combining multiple hard drives into a single logical unit, RAID can help protect against data loss in the event of a drive failure. It can also improve performance by distributing data across multiple drives, which can help reduce data access times and increase data transfer speeds.
