RAID, which stands for Redundant Array of Independent Disks, is a technology that combines two or more hard drives into a disk array group. It can combine multiple hard drives to achieve a higher level than a single large-capacity hard drive performance, data integration, fault tolerance, capacity, etc. Simply put, RAID makes multiple disks work together to improve overall system performance for computer users, especially Server users.

RAID-0-1-5

Besides, RAID is like a single hard disk or logical storage unit, which can be divided into RAID-0, RAID-1, RAID-1, RAID-5, etc. Generally, RAID 1 and RAID 5 are widely used to solve Server data storage risk issues. In order to ensure the safety of data and improve the performance of RAID disks, it is very important to choose a reliable RAID partition manager.

Generally, Windows system support to use Disk Management to manage RAID. But sometimes, Disk Management can't meet all your needs. In other words, Disk Management is limited in some features, such as you must delete all the contents on the RAID before converting to GPT disk. So you need to seek other help.

AOMEI Partition Assistant Server is an excellent Raid software to manage RAID on Windows 2022, 2019, 2016, 2012(R2), 2008(R2), and 2003. Also, it works on Windows 11, 10, 8, 7, Vista, and XP. And the software provides a graphical user interface that makes every operation easy to complete.

As a RAID partition manager, it includes many basic and advanced features. For example, it can easily upgrade Raid 5 drives to larger capacity, resize RAID/move RAID, delete RAID, format RAID, etc. Additionally, it also supports managing basic disks such as convert dynamic to basic, clone OS to SSD, recover lost partition, and make bootable CD and so on.

Dynamic Disk Manager

 

• Resize dynamic disk: Extend, shrink, move dynamic partition for first-rank performance。

 Extend dynamic system volume: To solve low disk space of C drive on dynamic disk.

• Software RAID array expansion: Increase mirrored (RAID 1) volume and Extend RAID-5 volume

 Add drive to RAID: To extend software RAID 0, 5 volume without re-creating entire array.

 Remove drive from RAID: To shrink software RAID 0, 5 volume without deleting entire array.
