HipHop Innovations, Inc. stores massive numbers of music videos as well as data about sales and clients. The company is highly dependent on this data and cannot afford to lose it. HipHop Innovations' management is considering purchasing a hard disk drive design called RAID (redundant array of independent drives). How does a RAID system help protect a company's critical data and information?

A RAID system uses multiple hard drives to create redundant copies of data, providing protection against data loss in the event of a hardware failure. In this case, HipHop Innovations would benefit from a RAID system as it would help protect their critical music video and sales data by creating multiple copies of the data on separate drives.
