Raid 0 - what is it actually?

Raid is the abbreviation for "Redundant Array of Independent Disks", which means "redundant arrangement of independent hard disks" in German:

• A raid system is a combination of several hard drives to increase the transfer rates.
• A RAID 0 system is used when at least two hard drives are used. The focus is on speed.
• So when you save a file, it will be spread across the different hard drives. This means that all disks can work faster and access the file at the same time.
• But be careful: If a hard drive of a Raid 0 system fails, all stored data will be lost.
