Advantages of RAID 0

[winderic]

I need some information on RAID 0, What are the Advantages of RAID 0 and what are disadvantage? Can RAID 0 store large file As Compared to a single disk drive?

[Rawko]

The advantages to RAID 0 are:
Larger total size — RAID 0 arrays can be constructed that are larger than a single disk drive, making it easier to store larger data files, Strengths: highest data protection (can tolerate multiple drive failures).

RAID is a method of combining several hard disk drives into one logical unit (two or more disks grouped together to appear as a single device to the host system). RAID 0 implements a striped disk array, the data is broken down into blocks and each block is written to a separate disk drive.

Better read/write performance — The I/O load on a RAID 0 array will be spread evenly among all the drives in the array. RAID 0 (striped disks) distributes data across several disks in a way that gives improved speed at any given instant. If one disk fails, however, all of the data on the array will be lost, as there is neither parity nor mirroring. , No wasted space — All available storage on all drives in the array are available for data storage.
