- Disk duplexing - a variation of
disk mirroring in which each of multiple storage disks has its own SCSI
controller
- Disk mirroring - Disk mirroring
(also known as RAID-1) is the practice of duplicating data in separate volumes
on two hard disks
- Disk stripping - a technique in
which multiple smaller disks act as a single large disk
- Disk stripping with parity - provides
data redundancy and reliability
- Hot Swapping - fit or replace (a
computer part) with the power still connected (Also a good way to get hurt if
you’re not paying attention)
