    Yup.... Correct answer is RAID 5.
    Free Thinkers are those who are willing to use their minds without fearing to understand things that clash with their own customs, beliefs for privileges. This state of mind is not common, but it is essential for right thinking; where it is absent, discussion is apt to become worse than useless.

    I choose 5 as well.
    5 is implemented by Win NT, but not 3, at least before Feb 2000. Perhaps too, 3 is not always Parity but some other form of ECC?

    From a February 2000 documentation of Windows NT Professional
    You can implement RAID (redundant array of inexpensive disks) in several ways. There are five levels of RAID:
    • RAID 1: Mirroring
    • RAID 2: Disk striping with error correction code (ECC)
    • RAID 3: Disk striping with ECC stored as parity
    • RAID 4: Disk striping large blocks, parity stored on one drive
    • RAID 5: Disk striping with parity distributed across multiple drives
    Windows NT only supports RAID levels 1 and 5. Another disk technique known as striping without parity is sometimes called RAID level 0. This technique, however, doesn't offer any protection for data and won't be discussed here.

    You just failed the quiz fabio

    Raid is a setup where one has several disks to form one logical drive to help
    protect data by storing recovery information across the disks so if one fails
    the system can rebuild the lost data. raid systems are also used to increase
    speed of disk read/writes.

    sata = serial ata

    raid is used to increase hard drive by using multiple hard drives to acheive speed, reliability or both depending on the raid setup which has been implemented.

    serial ata has taken over from parallel ata (normal ide hard drives) which is faster, hot-swap capable and a few other enhancements over pata.
