What's md(4) mean? Where can I find the detail information about this?

md - Multiple Device driver aka Linux Software RAID
SYNOPSIS

/dev/md/n
/dev/md/name
DESCRIPTION
The md driver provides virtual devices that are created from
one or more independent underlying devices. This array of devices often
contains redundancy and
the devices are often disk drives, hence the acronym RAID which
stands for a Redundant Array of Independent Disks.
