Section 5 - Knowledge Base Knowledge Base What is RAID? RAID, short for Redundant Array of Independent Disks, is a combination of two or more disks with the aim of providing fault tolerance and performance improvement. There are several different levels of RAID, with each one providing a different method of sharing or distributing data amongst the drives. The DNS-327L supports Standard, JBOD, RAID 0, and RAID 1. Standard Standard provides a single volume for each drive. Although performance is improved, the lack of any RAID or mirroring means that if one drive fails, all data on the volume will be lost. JBOD JBOD allows you to create a large virtual disk drive by concatenating two or more smaller drives together. It offers no redundancy and limited data protection.. D-Link DNS-327L User Manual 445
