    ADXT Powers ATA to New Levels The original notion of RAID was to build high capacity, reliable storage subsystems using large numbers of inexpensive disk drives. Thus its original definition: Redundant Array of Inexpensive Drives. Over time that definition became Redundant Array of Independent Drives and the inherent cost advantage in a RAID system was lost.
