private share A folder that is accessible only to users with permission granted by the share's owner. RAID Redundant Array of Independent Disks. A technology that combines disk drives together for improved performance and fault tolerance (the ability to withstand the failure of a disk drive). RAID 0 See stripe. RAID 1 See mirror. RAID 5 A level of RAID protection. A volume with RAID 5 is built from a minimum of three disk drives, and uses data striping and parity data to provide redundancy. (Parity is extra information that's used to re-create data if a disk drive fails. In volumes with RAID 5, parity data is striped evenly across the disk drives with the stored data.) Parity data provides data protection, and striping improves performance. See also stripe. RAID 10 A level of RAID protection. A volume with RAID 10 is built from two or more equal-sized RAID 1 volumes. Data in a volume with RAID 10 is both striped and mirrored. Mirroring provides data protection, and striping improves performance. See also mirror, and stripe. remote access Access to the server from a computer that is not on your local network. For instance, accessing the server from a client's computer, over the Internet, is remote access. Remote access can also refer to shutting down or resetting the server using BlackArmor Manager instead of physically pressing the Power button. See also local access. replication The process where an exact copy of the data on your BlackArmor server is created and continuously maintained on a second BlackArmor server using a permanent network connection. Continuous backups provide the best protection against data or device loss, especially if the second server is located in another building or part of the city (or country). Also known as an archive backup. RSA key An encryption decoder that's part of SSL, a type of encryption used to protect data being sent over a network or the Internet. "RSA" stands for Rivest, Shamir, and Adelman, who invented the technology. BlackArmor® NAS 220 User Guide (Version 2) 59

private share
A folder that is accessible only to users with permission granted by the share’s owner.
RAID
Redundant Array of Independent Disks. A technology that combines disk drives together for
improved performance and fault tolerance (the ability to withstand the failure of a disk drive).
RAID 0
See stripe.
RAID 1
See mirror.
RAID 5
A level of RAID protection. A volume with RAID 5 is built from a minimum of three disk drives,
and uses data striping and parity data to provide redundancy. (Parity is extra information
that’s used to re-create data if a disk drive fails. In volumes with RAID 5, parity data is striped
evenly across the disk drives with the stored data.) Parity data provides data protection, and
striping improves performance. See also stripe.
RAID 10
A level of RAID protection. A volume with RAID 10 is built from two or more equal-sized RAID
1 volumes. Data in a volume with RAID 10 is both striped and mirrored. Mirroring provides
data protection, and striping improves performance. See also mirror, and stripe.
remote access
Access to the server from a computer that is not on your local network. For instance,
accessing the server from a client’s computer, over the Internet, is remote access.
Remote access can also refer to shutting down or resetting the server using BlackArmor
Manager instead of physically pressing the Power button. See also local access.
replication
The process where an exact copy of the data on your BlackArmor server is created and
continuously maintained on a second BlackArmor server using a permanent network
connection. Continuous backups provide the best protection against data or device loss,
especially if the second server is located in another building or part of the city (or country).
Also known as an archive backup.
RSA key
An encryption decoder that’s part of SSL, a type of encryption used to protect data being sent
over a network or the Internet. “RSA” stands for Rivest, Shamir, and Adelman, who invented
the technology.
