"Redundant Array of Independent Disks"
or you can also say
"Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks"
RAID means you have your computers Hard drives linked to work in sync with each other,this could be used to back up data instantly or used to make your Hard drives all work as one big storage device.If you had two 500GB drives and put them in RAID you could make them act as one 1TB drive,the data would be split between the two drives.

What does the term raid server recovery mean?
The term "RAID server recovery" means just that: recovery of the RAID server. A RAID server is a computer that runs RAID software to act as a secondary storage.
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.
Which type of RAID uses a dedicated parity disk?
RAID 3
What is raid support?
RAID stands for "Redundant Array of Inexpensive/Independent Disks". RAID can increase performance and/or data redundancy and/or capacity. There are many different RAID types, the most common being RAID 0 (stripe), RAID 1 (mirror) and RAID 5 (stripe with parity).RAID works by combining two or more hard disks.In a RAID 0 (stripe) array, data is split equally between the number of disks in the array. For example, when a 2 MB file is written to a RAID 0 array with two hard drives, the file is split in to two parts and 1 MB of data is written to each hard drive. This increases capacity and performance, but sharply decreases redundancy since only one of the drives needs to fail for all information to be lost.In a RAID 1 (mirror) array, a complete copy is written to each hard drive in the array. Capacity and performance stay the same, but redundancy is increased. As long as one drive works, you will not lose data.In a RAID 5 (stripe with parity) array, you need at least three hard drives. Files are split up to all but one of the drives (similar to RAID 0) and a parity bit is written to the last drive. This increases performance, capacity and redundancy. Performance is not as good as RAID 0, but still better than RAID 1. Redundancy is not as good as RAID 1, but is still quite reliable. Capacity is the sum of all but one of the drives.There are other RAID levels, but they are not as common.RAID support simply means that whatever device is being described supports RAID. Nearly anything supports RAID. The only computer component that "RAID support" would be relevant to would be a computer motherboard or an IDE or SATA controller.
Why does raid o not provide fault tolerance?
Different RAID systems have different effects on multiple hard drives. RAID 0 combines storage together. Say you have 2 250GB HDDs combined with RAID 0: that you gives you, essentially, 500GB of storage. The problem with RAID 0 is that if one of the drives were to fail, then the other is to fail too, because of the way RAID 0 works by distributing strands of data over both disks. RAID 0 is sometimes not considered to be a true RAID system because of the lack of fault tolerance. RAID 1 and 5 are more complex to describe, but they generally deal with the same thing: backups. Instead of combining storage, RAID 1 and 5 deal with clones of a particular drive to offer redundancy if one were to fail. Say you have 2 250GB HDDs under RAID 1, essentially giving you 250GB of storage. If one drive were to fail, then the other would serve as a replacement if such were to occur.

Why use RAID?
There are at least two cases when you can benefit using one of RAID configurations. The first case is when you need to have high transfer rates: RAID 0 (gaming, video editing and so on). The second case is when you need a very stable system which can stand loose one of hard drives: RAID 1 (servers, file storage and so on).
