RAID 0 Striping

Page 11 highlights

RAID 0 (Striping): The RAID0 storage policy distributes access across all hard disks, also called striping. RAID0 presents the best data speed but no data redundancy. RAID0 storage policy accelerates hard disk operating speed by using many disks in parallel. Hard drive data segments are written to different disks simultaneously which increases performance while sacrificing data redundancy. To implement the RAID0 storage policy, the device creates a single virtual volume that is striped across both hard drives, with a storage capacity that is equal to the sum of both hard disk drives.

RAID 0 (Striping)
:
The RAID0 storage policy distributes access across all hard disks, also called striping.
RAID0 presents the best data speed but no data redundancy. RAID0 storage policy
accelerates hard disk operating speed by using many disks in parallel. Hard drive data
segments are written to different disks simultaneously which increases performance
while sacrificing data redundancy. To implement the RAID0 storage policy, the device
creates a single virtual volume that is striped across both hard drives, with a storage
capacity that is equal to the sum of both hard disk drives.
