1 Introduction
Until recently, there were limited options for most computer users who wanted to protect their data from loss in the event of a hard drive failure. These options were manually copying files to a backup drive or using cumbersome backup software. If users failed to perform one of these mundane tasks prior to a hard drive failure, they had to spend considerable time and money to recover even a portion of the data on the drive. Server and desktop computer users have long enjoyed the security and benefits of RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) technology to recover data in the event of drive failure.
HP now offers a simple RAID solution for notebook computer users who need to protect data on a Serial ATA (SATA) disk drive in case of drive failure or virus attacks. HP’s RAID solution also benefits computer users who frequently work with large files and want to improve the storage performance of their computer.
