If one disk fails, the second copy is still available and no data loss has occurred. - -There also exist more advanced modes, the most common of which is called RAID-5, and consists of 3 or more disks with data stripped (written sequentially) across the disks. - -The [Wikipedia](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/) page for RAID provides some helpful information about the history and bennefits of the various RAID implementations.
