硬盘基本知识（Basic knowledge of hard disk） Basic knowledge of hard disk DOS management structure of hard disk 1. tracks, sectors, cylinders, and heads The basic component of a hard disk is a disk made of hard metal material coated with magnetic medium, varying in number of disks of different capacities. Each disk has two sides Record information. The disk is divided into many fan-shaped regions, each of which is called a sector. Each sector can store 128 * 2 N times (N = 0.1.2.3) byte information. In DOS Each sector is 128 * 2 of the 2 square = 512 bytes, the disk surface with the center of the disk as the center of the radius of concentric circles known as tracks. Hard disk, different disc, same radius A cylinder consisting of tracks is called a cylinder. Both tracks and cylinders represent circles of different radii. In many cases, the tracks and cylinders can be used interchangeably, and we know that each magnetic field can be used interchangeably A disk has two sides, each having a head, which is often distinguished by magnetic head numbers. Sectors, tracks (or cylinders) and number of magnetic heads form the basic parameters of the hard disk structure Parameter can get the capacity of hard disk: Storage capacity = head number * track (cylinder) number * per sector number * per sector byte Main points: (1) the hard disk has several disks, each of which has two planes, each with a magnetic head (2) the disk is divided into several sectors, namely sector (3) concentric circles with different radii on the same disk are tracks (4) cylindrical surface with different radii, namely cylinder; (5) formula: storage capacity = magnetic head number * track (cylinder) number * per sector number * per sector byte number (6) the information records can be represented as * * tracks (cylinders), * heads, * * sectors The 2. cluster A cluster is the smallest unit in which DOS is assigned. When creating a very small file, such as a byte, it does not take up only one byte of space on the
