 INTERLEAVE Definition
We define INTERLEAVE |
INTERLEAVE - This typically refers to the numbering scheme of sectors of data on hard drives. With an interleave of one, sectors are numbered sequentially. With an interleave of two, sequential data is stored on every second sector, and so forth. The reason for interleaves higher than one is that hard drives cannot always keep up with the spin speed of the disk and sometimes need a break before getting to the next region of data. For example, if the data were listed as 11111 xxxxx 22222 yyyyy (interleave of two) then while the hard drive spins over xxxxx it can take some time and get ready to start reading 22222. If a hard drive read head is quick enough to have an interleave of one, data is simply put sequentially onto the media. |
