The demand for, and interest in, high-capacity, high-performance disk storage systems is soaring. In the 1980s, only banks, airlines, and the government needed to have their data online and available at all times. Today, businesses and organizations of every size require it for local area network servers, web servers, enterprise-wide networks, etc. Redundant Arrays of Independent Disks (RAID) is the disk storage technology that is revolutionizing the ways online computer data is stored. Originally developed for mainframes, RAID technology is now used for supercomputers, mainframes, minicomputers, servers, even high-end workstations - and soon personal computers. This text co-written by the RAID Advisory Board, is a technical handbook on RAID and other modern data storage technologies.
