Spanish term or phrase: de forma redundada
Hi and good morning :)

I have the following context:

Toda esta información se encuentra físicamente almacenada en una unidad de almacenamiento en red (SAN) de forma redundada y con una tolerancia a fallos físicos (hardware) muy cercana al 100%.

Can someone explain what 'de forma redundada' means here and/or offer a translation suggestion?

Thanks for any help!

redundantly
Explanation:
"Redundada" in the world of computers means that it's repeated several times. In this case, the phrase is telling you that the information is being stored reduntantly, which means there are copies of the same data in the physical storage, which is a good way to backup information.
