Abstract

When you installed your first Linux host, you accepted all defaults when it came to setting up disks and partitions.

We’ll look at various types of storage hardware and the ways in which you can use storage management software to your advantage. A critical part of any business is its data, so you need to make sure it is both safe and accessible and stays that way.
