Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks, often found on servers, enables multiple hard-drives to be accessed by the system as though they were a single storage device. RAID devices or software can be configured in various RAID levels, to boost disk performance (faster reading and writing) and/or for fault-tolerance (so that if a physical disk fails, the failed disk can be replaced without loss of data; and pending replacement the data will continue to be available). To add an article to this sub-category of Category:FreeBSD for Servers, add [[Category:RAID]] to the end of the article.
