Setting Up RAID on Your Dedicated Server

RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) enhances both redundancy and performance by combining multiple drives into a single system. Here’s how you can set it up:

  1. Access the BIOS/UEFI: Restart your server and press the key (commonly F2, Delete, or Esc) to enter the BIOS/UEFI settings.

  2. Enable RAID Mode: Find the storage configuration section and switch the mode from AHCI to RAID.

  3. Select RAID Level: Choose a RAID level based on your needs:

    • RAID 0: Performance-focused but no redundancy.

    • RAID 1: Mirroring for data redundancy.

    • RAID 5/6: Balanced performance and redundancy (requires multiple drives).

  4. Create the RAID Array: Use the BIOS/UEFI RAID configuration utility to select drives and finalize your RAID setup.

  5. Save and Restart: Confirm the changes and restart your server to initialize the RAID array.

Pro Tip: Use tools like mdadm in Linux or dedicated hardware RAID controllers for more advanced setups.
