RAID in Cloud Hosting
The disk drives which we use for storage with our innovative cloud web hosting platform are not the traditional HDDs, but extremely fast NVMes. They work in RAID-Z - a special setup intended for the ZFS file system that we work with. Any content that you add to the cloud hosting account will be held on multiple hard drives and at least one of them shall be employed as a parity disk. This is a special drive where an additional bit is included to any content copied on it. If a disk in the RAID stops functioning, it will be replaced without any service disruptions and the info will be recovered on the new drive by recalculating its bits thanks to the data on the parity disk plus that on the remaining disks. This is done in order to ensure the integrity of the information and along with the real-time checksum verification that the ZFS file system runs on all drives, you won't ever have to be concerned about losing any information no matter what.
RAID in Semi-dedicated Servers
The info uploaded to any semi-dedicated server account is stored on NVMe drives which work in RAID-Z. One of the drives in such a setup is used for parity - each time data is copied on it, an additional bit is added. If a disk turns out to be defective, it will be removed from the RAID without interrupting the functioning of the sites since the data will load from the remaining drives, and when a brand new drive is included, the info that will be copied on it will be a combination between the data on the parity disk and data kept on the other drives in the RAID. That is done so as to guarantee that the info which is being copied is correct, so the moment the new drive is rebuilt, it could be included in the RAID as a production one. This is one more guarantee for the integrity of your information since the ZFS file system which runs on our cloud hosting platform compares a unique checksum of all copies of your files on the separate drives to be able to avoid any possibility of silent data corruption.
