RAID is a technology that lets your computer system harness multiple hard disk drives in a variety of ways. There are multiple varieties of RAID configurations, many of which provide a measure of data redundancy. Even so, the individual drives which make up the array are still mechanical devices and failures can still occur. When they do, RAID data recovery becomes necessary.

Most people do not realize how fast a raid can go from a simple problem to a very complex one so they keep trying to get it to work. Then it goes from a one drive failure to a two drive failure or more.
If a raid stops working with one drive out, the problem is more than just the one drive since it is supposed to keep working with one drive missing.
A hardware raid has only been done. o software raid has been done as of yet.
