Answer:
The space available will vary between 800 GB (100%) and 400 GB (50%) of the total disks, depending on the RAID level.
The OS will handle the RAID as a single disk.
Explanation:
Each RAID level implements parity and redundancy in a different way, so the amount of disks used for this extra information will reduce the space available for actual storage.
Usual RAID levels are:
<u>RAID 0:</u> does not implement any redundancy or parity, so you will have available 100% of the total storage: 8 x 100 GB = 800 GB
<u>RAID 1:</u> Duplicates all the information in one disk to a second disk. Space is reduced in half: 400 GB
<u>RAID 5:</u> Uses the equivalent of 1 disk of parity data distributed evenly on each disk, meaning the space available is 
of the total disks: 
of 800 GB = 700 GB
Writting and reading the information on a RAID storage is handled by a raid controller, either implemented in hardware or software. The OS will "see" a single disk and will read or write information as usual.

This depends on what program you're using. Some programs can only read certain files exclusive to that program, such as .psd files can usually only be read in Photoshop or other adobe programs. Many fields of work (Journalism, the Arts, Design, etc.) ask for .psd files to be converted to either .png, .jpg, or .tiff so that it can be seen on many other platforms.
For images especially, files are more compatible either on a program or printed. for example, .png files are good for storing color data from computer to computer, but if you print a .png file, the quality is poor. hence it's recommended to save files you want to print for designs as .jpeg, because .jpeg can more easily be printed and will then be presented at a high quality.
Sometimes color quality changes depending on CMYK as well but that's a whole other ball of wax.
Given, a = 3, r = 1/2, n = 10
%r is common ratio
%n is number of terms
%a is the first term of the series
Sum = 0;
a = 3;
r = 1/2;
for i = 0 : 1 : 10;
Sum = Sum + a * r ^ i;
end
