A spanned volume is a formatted partition in which data is stored on more than one hard disk, yet appears as one volume. A spanned volume is a non-RAID drive architecture, and may be implemented in hardware or software; It may be referred to as Concatenation, SPAN, BIG, or JBOD, though JBOD is ambiguous – as JBOD may also refer to each physical disk being presented as a separate logical volume. Unlike RAID, spanned volumes have no fault tolerance, so if any disk fails, the data on the whole volume could be lost. In Windows NT, a spanned volume is called a volume set. FAT16/32 and NTFS file systems may be used, and the volume can span up to 32 hard disks, and the system or boot partitions cannot be included in a spanned volume. ==See also== * Disc spanning * Drobo 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Spanned volume」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
