Raid 0



Top Raid 0 Raid 1 Raid 3 Raid 5 Raid 10 Raid 0+1


RAID 0
Offers no redundancy or fault tolerance, hence does not truly fit the"RAID" acronym. In level 0, data is striped across drives,resulting in higher data throughput. Since no redundant information isstored, performance is very good, but the failure of any disk in thearray results in data loss. This level is commonly referred to asstriping.


Advantages
No parity generation
Easy to implement
Cost effective
Utilises full disk capacity
Disadvantages
Not a true RAID
No redundancy / fault tolerance
Drive failure will result in data loss
Not suitable in mission critical environments

Applications
Pre-Press
Video editing and production
Image manipulation/editing


Dual controller Raid 0 offers better performance than a single controller
