Software RAID

 
  • Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks

    • Multiple partitions on different disks combined into one RAID device
    • Fault tolerance, larger disk size, performance
  • Install-time RAID levels:

    • RAID 0: striping (no redundancy)
    • RAID 1: mirroring
    • RAID 5: striping with distributed parity
