The drives are shown as one large single volume but the total size will depend on the drive with the
striping) is not redundant. This form of array splits each piece of data across the drives in segments;
since data is written without any form of parity data-checking, it allows for the fastest data transfer.
On the downside, if one drive becomes damaged, the whole array can become corrupted.
Storage Capacity
1.6.2 RAID 1 - Disk Mirroring
smallest capacity, can be used. RAID 1 creates an exact copy (or mirror) of a set of data on the second
drive. This is useful when reliability and backup take precedence over storage capacity. Should one hard
drive fail, it can be replaced and the data rebuilt automatically.
