What is dynamic disk?

Rating:

A dynamic disk is a physical disk, which supports volumes that span multiple disks such as striped volume, RAID-5 volume, etc. A dynamic disk uses a hidden database to track information about dynamic volumes on the disk and other dynamic disks in the computer. Dynamic disks can be made by converting the basic disks. This can be done by using Disk Management or the DISKPART command-line utility. When a basic disk is converted into a dynamic disk, all existing basic volumes become dynamic volumes.
