RAID Level Configurations Supported by Windows Server 2019

Windows Server 2019 supports several RAID level configurations for data storage and protection. These configurations include:

  • RAID level 0 (striping): This configuration provides improved performance by striping data across multiple drives, but offers no fault tolerance.
  • RAID level 1 (mirroring): This configuration creates an exact copy (mirror) of data on another drive for redundancy and data protection.
  • RAID level 5 (striping with parity): This configuration offers both performance benefits of striping and data protection through parity information distributed across drives.

However, RAID level 2 is not supported by Windows Server 2019. RAID level 2 is not commonly used in modern systems and is not included in the RAID level configurations supported by Windows Server 2019.
