Which RAID level stripes data for speed but provides no redundancy?

RAID 0, striping.

Start playing free

  1. RAID 1
  2. RAID 0 ✔
  3. RAID 6

Why: RAID 0 is a performance oriented striped layout. It gives high I/O speed at low cost but provides no redundancy, so one failed drive loses the array.

Huh, didn't know that: The A+ Core 1 objectives list RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6 and 10.
