There’s no such thing as a crash proof disk. Sooner or later, every hard drive will fail. But, by simply and inexpensively adding a RAID to your desktop system, you’ll enjoy the same bulletproof data reliability as that protecting giant enterprise systems.
What’s RAID? It’s an acronym for Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks. A RAID can be configured for system security, performance or both, with the different variations — termed RAID O, RAID 1, etc. For protection against disk failure, a simple RAID 1 constantly duplicates or “mirrors” all of the data stored on one drive to an identical second drive. The computer will see the two drives as one, but if either drive should fail, the mirror drive will contain a copy of all the stored data, ensuring no loss of productivity.
