Answer / baban
There are 6 Levels of RAID
1) RAID0 - just striping and concatenation
2) RAID1 - mirroring
3) RAID2 - data is striped in all disks where as parity is
stored on different disk. the data is striped at bit level
4) RAID3 - same as RAID2 but the data is striped at byte
level
5) RAID4 - same as RAID2 & RAID3 but the data is striped at
block level
6) RAID5 - the data and parity both are striped at block
level across all the disks.
