TOPIC Hard disk drive
INTRODUCTION WHAT IS HARD DISK? A HARD DISK DRIVE (HDD) is a data storage device used for storing and retrieving digital information using rapidly rotating disks (platters) coated with magnetic material. An HDD retains its data even when powered off. Data is read in a random-access manner, meaning individual blocks of data can be stored or retrieved in any order rather than sequentially.
INTRODUCTION Who Invented The Hard Disk? The hard disk drive was originally invented by an IBM team led by Rey Johnson in 1954 . However since his teams invention of the technology significant improvements have been made.
MAIN COMPONENTS FOR HARD DISK DRIVE DISK PLATTER STEPPER MOTOR SPINDLE MOTOR READ AND WRITE HEAD ARM
COMPONETS 1. DISK PLATTER The platter is made up of a magnetic material, in the flat disk part of the drive. The data stored in the platter. Each set of magnetic particles is collection a unit called a bit.
COMPONETS 2 STEPPER MOTOR Use stepper motors for controlling read/write head position. Stepper motors usually use +12V power, but some new low-power drives use +5V power source.
COMPONETS 3 SPINDLE MOTOR It control the platter. This motor rotates at a speed of 3600 to 10,000 R.P.M All the platter moves in the same direction.
COMPONETS 4 READ AND WRITE HEAD The heads read and write the information to the drive platter. The head writes magnetic information on the platter.
COMPONETS 5. HEAD ARM Used for read and write operations. DISK STRUCTURE Track Sector Cylinder/Sector of a track Storage capacity/Cluster
DISK STRUCTURE TRACK The HDD is divided into number of concentric circles called tracks. Circular path in sector is called track. SECTOR Data storage area in one track multiple divided into the multiple block is called sector. Each sector can have 512 bytes of the data.
DISK STRUCTURE CYLINDER A set of corresponding tracks in all sides of a hard disk is called cylinder. STORAGE CAPICITY Its having a formula shown below: Storage capacity=number of cylinder’s*tracks per cylinder* Sector per tracks*bytes per sector.
FILE SYSTEM IN HDD 1.FAT (File Allocation Table) It’s not a security. Partition size is max 32GB. Does not support data compression. Does not support disk quota. Windows operating system conformability (95,98.ms-dos)
FILE SYSTEM IN HDD 2.NTFS (New Technology File System) It’s a security. Partition size is 1 ( Tera Bytes). It support data compression. It support disk quota. Windows operating system conformability (2000,xp ,vista , win 7)
CONCLUSION A hard disk has revolutionized the digital age as we know it. Hard disks are the most widely used technology for storage of our information and data. Without hard disks the computer digital age we live in would not be the same.
