Question

A hard disk is divided into tracks, which are further sub-divided into
1. Heads
2. Vectors
3. Sectors
4. Cloud

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 3 : Sectors

The correct answer is Sectors.

• Tracks are frequently used to split the surfaces into concentric rings. Sectors are used to split tracks.
• On a disc, a sector is the smallest memory unit.
• A sector on a magnetic disc or optical disc is a subdivision of a track in computer disc storage.
• Each sector of a hard disc drive (HDD) or a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM holds a defined amount of user-accessible data, typically 512 bytes for HDDs and 2048 bytes for CD-ROMs and DVD-ROMs.

• A read/write head, often known as an RW head, is a device located on a hard drive's arm.
• A vector is an abstract data type that is used to describe attributes with both magnitude and direction (as opposed to a scalar that only has magnitude).
• The delivery of various services over the Internet is known as cloud computing.
