RAID-Equipped Storage is a revolutionary way to safeguard your data from drive failure. RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) employs the simultaneous use of two or more hard drives to achieve greater levels of data security or performance.
Not All RAID Drives Are Created Equal:
The advanced technology and security of RAID does not come for free; it requires significant processing power. Some brands only offer RAID software, putting the processing burden on your computer's CPU. Cavalry uses high-quality hardware RAID, letting your computer step in only when necessary.
Click below to learn about the different levels of RAID:
RAID 0 distributes data across several disks in a way that enhances speed. However, no data protection is offered.
RAID 1 uses two or more disks, each storing a copy of the same exact data: data is never lost so long as one disk survives. Capacity is reduced by one half.
RAID 5, the most advanced RAID system, stripes data on three or more disks, with one of those disks recording the "parity." This protects data against the loss of any one disk more efficiently than RAID 1: capacity is only reduced by one disk, not one half.

RAID 0 - Striping
RAID 0 distributes data across several disks in a way that enhances speed. However, no data protection is offered.
RAID 1 - Mirroring
RAID 1 uses two or more disks, each storing a copy of the same exact data: data is never lost so long as one disk survives. Capacity is reduced by one half.
RAID 5 - Striping with Parity
RAID 5, the most advanced RAID system, stripes data on three or more disks, with one of those disks recording the "parity." This protects data against the loss of any one disk more efficiently than RAID 1: capacity is only reduced by one disk, not one half.
