Methods used to organise
and physically store disk data are cylinder and Sector.
In computer disk storage,
a sector is a subdivision of a track on a magnetic disk or optical disc. Each
sector stores a fixed amount of user-accessible data, traditionally 512 bytes
for hard disk drives (HDDs) and 2048 bytes for CD-ROMs and DVD-ROMs.
A disk is divided into
tracks, cylinders, and sectors. A track is that portion of a disk which passes
under a single stationary head during a disk rotation, a ring 1 bit wide. A
cylinder is comprised of the set of tracks described by all the heads (on
separate platters) at a single seek position.
