In terms of hard drives, RAID normally means 'Redundant Array of Inexpensive (or Independant) Disks'. That said, if data security is required, an encryption scheme that keeps the keys temporarily in memory is best. In an emergency, the power can be pulled from the computer system, and the data is permanently lost unless the keys can be obtained.

What is a group of hard drive implementing RAID called?
A group of hard drives assembled into a RAID array is often referred to as, well, a "RAID array" a "RAID stack" or a "RAID cluster."
Will raid 5 support different speed hard drive?
For Raid 5 all the hard drives have to be of the same speed.
Where is information available about RAID hard drive recovery available?
You can get information about RAID hard drive recovery from the Wikipedia website. Once on the page, type "RAID" into the search field in the upper right-hand corner and press enter to bring up the information.
What device allow a forensic investigator to copy a suspect hard drive to a clean hard drive very quickly?
maybe RAID
What is RAID 10 for computers?
To understand what is raid level 10 you need to know what is Raid 0 and what is Raid 1. Raid 0 is writing of certain data to two hard drive in stripes, thus doubling the speed of writing or loading data. Raid 1 is parallel writing of data to two hard driver. Whatever is written to drive one is written to drive two, thus having automatic backup of data in case of something goes wrong. Now if you combine these two, you get Raid 10. Your data are first written in stripes to hard drive let's call them 1 and 2 and then data from 1 and 2 are copied to hard drive 3 and 4 respectively. All this happen on the fly. This give speed and security of your data if one of primary hard drives fails.
What additional hardware will be necessary to implement two identical hard drive?
Hardware will be RAID PCIe / PCIx RAID hardware controller but The hardware RAID is often the motherboard RAID controller or a separate RAID card.
What is the external raid used for?
The external raid is used as a portable high-performance dual-drive storage system. This is used to store highly sensitive data on an external hard drive.
How can I get an extra hard drive to mimic and copy my computer hard drive in tandem while using my computer?
It's called a "raid" disk controller. Using a raid controller you can connect 2 or more hard drives in a number of different configurations; one being that the drives are "mirrored".
What can you use for an protective hard drive that will house and protect a hard drive outside the computer case?
Dock
How is redundancy achieved in a RAID system?
It depends on what RAID level you are planning to use. One of the most common levels is RAID 1, data is written identically to multiple hard drives. This achieves redundancy in a RAID system. It creates a duplicate, a fail safe in case of a hard drive failure.
Which RAID in computers is the fastest?
RAID 0 is generally the fastest RAID level. It uses two hard drives at the same time, with each drive sending and receiving different data. The data is usually "striped."
How do you get a sata hard drive to work on a PC that only supports ide hard drives what method would be best for drive and PC speed?
get a sata ide raid card
