  15. This driver lets you combine several hard disk partitions into one

  17. partition to another one or to combine several redundant hard disks
  18. into a RAID1/4/5 device so as to provide protection against hard
  19. disk failures. This is called "Software RAID" since the combining of
  20. the partitions is done by the kernel. "Hardware RAID" means that the
