What is APES? AP Environmental Science (APES) is a year-long course that is the equivalent to a one semester college level Environmental Science course. Students will be expected to take the AP Environmental Science test in May 2016.
RAID is basically a group of disks, usually with one or both characteristics of parity and striping. Parity is redundancy of your blocks of data on the disks; striping allows the individual drive speeds and feeds to add up, giving you more performance than a single disk could provide.
RAID arrays appear to the operating system (OS) as a single logical hard disk. RAID employs the technique of disk mirroring or disk striping, which involves partitioning each drive's storage space into units ranging from a sector (512 bytes) up to several megabytes. The stripes of all the disks are interleaved and addressed in order.
