What is Raid?
Raid is a data storage virtualization technology that combines multiple physical disk drive components into one or more logical units.
There are three main types of Raid solutions:

How to check your Raid status on your server?
To check your Raid status, you can use the following commands:
- cat /proc/mdstat
- cat /etc/mdadm.conf
- mdadm --query /dev/DEVICE
You find more information about the mdadm command at https://linux.die.net/man/8/mdadm.
Also, it is possible to check your Raid device through your server management console.
To use the management console, please contact your hosting provider or server manufacturer.
If you have any difficulties using or setup your Raid solution, please contact your system administrator.
