Industry Standard Architecture – Student Guide 1 – Page 225:
RAID 0 – Disk striping
RAID 0 is not fault tolerant and is often used in situations that are not mission-critical, where
performance and capacity are more important than uptime. RAID 0 is the only non-fault-tolerant
RAID level supported by HP.
Because RAID 0 has no overhead associated with duplication of information, it provides the
highest performance. Both read and write requests can use all member disks simultaneously.
