a scheme for storing the same data in different places (thus, redundantly) on multiple hard disks
a series of drives which together act as a single storage system
a set of disks presented to operating systems as logical volumes with varying capacity, availability, and performance characteristics
a teensy bit faster, but remember that latency will be a tad higher, so the SATA drive is faster for everyday use
