The Harpers Ferry raid, led by John Brown in 1859, was significant because it aimed to incite a slave rebellion and challenge the institution of slavery in the United States. Although the raid ultimately failed, it heightened tensions between the North and South, contributing to the growing divide that would lead to the Civil War. The event galvanized abolitionist sentiments in the North while provoking fear and anger in the South, marking a critical moment in the escalating conflict over slavery. Additionally, Brown's martyrdom after his execution further inflamed the national debate over slavery and civil rights.

What common characteristics are shared by all RAID levels?

RAID levels share the following properties: * Several different physical disks are combined and accessed as a compound element. Under Linux, this is done by the driver for multiple devices, also known as /dev/md*. * The stored data is distributed over all disks in a well-defined way. * The data is stored in a redundant way over the disks, so in case of failure, data is recoverable.


Why were the Merrill Marauders so important?

Brcause their efforts indicated an American presence in China, it provide a rationale for maintaing combat forces in China that could have better have been employed in Oceania and like the Doolitlle Raid it had a Psychological impact that greatly exceeded its strategic importance. In terms of the big battles, this was unimportant and maybe irrelevant. Like other strategic events in WW-2, the Maruders, The Doolittle Raid, Iwo Jima and the attack and defense of Gualalcanal were not as important as war winners like Kursk or Stalingrad, but they all contributed, they all gave their utmost, and they, like the A-Bomb won WW2.

Why would people utilize RAID 1 so costly?

It's true that whenever you use RAID you create an additional point of fault, but because RAID 1 (mirroring) allows identical content to be repopulated on its member drives, it provides a form of redundancy (which is what was intended [RAID = redundant array of inexpensive disks / independent disks]). However, as most people would say, RAID is not a substitute for a backup, so it's good to have a back up in case if your RAID array fails.

How do you hook up two disc drives in a raid format?

You hardware has to support RAID technology, read the manual for your motherboard.
