RAID 01, also called RAID 0+1, is a RAID level using a mirror of stripes, achieving both replication and sharing of data between disks. [3] The usable capacity of a RAID 01 array is the same as in a RAID 1 array made of the same drives, in which one half of the drives is used to mirror the other half.
RAID (/ r eɪ d /; redundant array of inexpensive disks or redundant array of independent disks) [1] [2] is a data storage virtualization technology that combines multiple physical data storage components into one or more logical units for the purposes of data redundancy, performance improvement, or both.
Like all RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks), Intel RST RAID employs two or more physical hard disks which the operating system will treat as a single disk, in order to increase redundancy which avoids data loss (except RAID 0), and/or to increase the speed at which data is written to and/or read from a disk.
Diagram of a RAID 1 setup. RAID 1 consists of an exact copy (or mirror) of a set of data on two or more disks; a classic RAID 1 mirrored pair contains two disks.This configuration offers no parity, striping, or spanning of disk space across multiple disks, since the data is mirrored on all disks belonging to the array, and the array can only be as big as the smallest member disk.
RAID stands for redundant array of independent disks (or, formerly, redundant array of inexpensive disks). RAID levels may refer to: Standard RAID levels , all the RAID configurations defined in the Common RAID Disk Drive Format standard, which is maintained by the Storage Networking Industry Association

A disk array controller is a device that manages the physical disk drives and presents them to the computer as logical units. It often implements hardware RAID , thus it is sometimes referred to as RAID controller .
MAID (massive array of idle drives): an architecture using hundreds to thousands of hard disk drives for providing nearline storage of data, primarily designed for write once, read occasionally (WORO) applications, in which increased storage density and decreased cost are traded for increased latency and decreased redundancy.
