A simple way to transfer photos from your phone to Windows without installing anything on either

If you mean RAID 0 (striping), although it sounds like it should speed up disk access, my experience is that it doesn't. then you did something wrong, perhaps using a ****ty raid controller or it was bottlenecked with a slow link, such as usb 2. raid 0 definitely speeds things up, but doubles the risk of failure. If you mean RAID 1 (mirroring), be aware that it is *not* a backup solution. RAID 1 uses two or more drives, each a duplicate of the others, to provide redundancy, not backup. It's used in situations (almost always within corporations, not in homes) where any downtown can't be tolerated, because the way it works is that if one drive fails the other takes over seamlessly. correct, although it's sometimes used in homes too. the other issue is that the reliability of modern drives virtually guarantees a failure on rebuild, particularly with raid 5. |
