What is RAID?
When I was searching for a computer, I noticed that alot of them didn't have something called RAID, and I am curious what is RAID? Is it crucial to the computer's performance? Thanks guys you are making me more and more computer literate each time.

Of course, RAID also has its cons. It leads to INCREASED drive failure. It has a lower failure rate when used with SCSI drives.sonofjesse

Most cmoputer users will not need a RAID setup. I reccomend a single hard drive and DVD back ups or 2 hard drives one with the backup data along with DVD backup. Google is an excellent tool for doing research on computer stuff like this.RegardsDavid
