RAID 50 volumes allow you to utilize multiple logical drives and combine them to create one large RAID array at the operating system level. There are several types of RAID arrays including simple, spanned, striped, mirrored, and RAID5. Utilizing multiple LSI Logic MegaRAID Serial ATA 150-4 or 150-6 adapters, you can scale your storage needs to meet the demands of today's data growth. Striping two logical drives at the operating system level, RAID 50, into a single array can provide you with a speed and fault tolerance advantage.
