Explanation

Spanned volumes - spanned volumes use disk space from 2 to 32 disks. The amount of space used on the individual disks may vary. When data is written to a spanned volume, the portion of the volume residing on the first disk is filled first, and then data is written to the next disk in the volume. If any disk fails in the volume, then all data stored on that volume becomes unavailable. A spanned volume uses multiple disks, but does not improve disk performance.
