The [[Storage Networking Industry Association|SNIA]] Common [[RAID]] '''Disk Data Format''' defines a standard data structure describing how data is formatted across disks in a RAID group. The DDF structure allows a basic level of [[interoperability]] between different suppliers of RAID technology. The Common [[Redundant array of independent disks|RAID]] DDF structure benefits storage users by enabling in-place data migration or recovery after controller failure using systems from different vendors.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.snia.org/tech_activities/standards/curr_standards/ddf Storage Networking Industry Association - Common RAID Disk Data Format (DDF)}}</ref>
