Confidence votes 118. In RAM, parity is a type of built-in error-checking system. After the 8 bits in a byte receive data, even parity works by adding to total number of 1s. If the number is odd, the parity bit is set to 1; if the number is even, the parity bit is set to 0. When the data is read back, the total is added up again and compared to the first total.
The greatest amount of parity checking comes with Raid 6 and this probably makes it the optimal Raid level to use with 2TB drives in an array, but it is inefficient for high random I/O environments. Martin Taylor is support team leader at Capita Financial Systems.
