Hard Disks 
• Low-level format- organizes both sides of each 
platter into tracks and sectors to define where 
items will be stored on the disk. 
• Partitioning: divide hard disk into separate 
areas called partitions; each partition functions 
as if it were a separate hard disk drive. 
• High-level format defines the file allocation 
table (FAT) for each partition, which is a table 
of information used to locate files on the disk.
Storage Systems 
• Hard Drives 
– 2 Types: SCSI and IDE 
• IDE drives- 
– originally developed as alternative to more expensive SCSI 
drives. 
– Modern versions called EIDE drives. 
– Support up to 4 multigigabyte drives. 
– If you want more devices, use SCSI or USB 
– Low-level formatted at the factory
Low Level Formatting 
• Low level format scans disk for defects and 
sets aside sectors with defects so they are not 
used for data. 
• IDE drives should never be low level 
formatted by a user or technician. Only high 
level format necessary.
Installing IDE/EIDE drives 
• IDE supports TWO drives in a system 
– one master (boot disk) and one slave 
– set master and slave using jumpers 
• EIDE supports FOUR drives per system 
– 2 drives on each of 2 cables 
– only one master, all others are slaves 
• IDE and EIDE drives both use 40-pin ribbon 
cable aligned to pin 1
Hard Drive
Floppies 
• Two sizes 
– 3.5 inch 
– 5.25 inch 
• 3.5 inch holds 1.44 MB for High density and 
750 KB for Double Density 
• Connected with 34 pin ribbon cable 
• Two Floppy Drives possible 
• Has twist in cable to distinguish A drive from 
B drive
SCSI 
• Pronounced Scuzzy 
• Small Computer Systems Interface 
• For wide range of peripheral devices, including hard 
disks, tape drives, optical drives, CD-ROMs and disk 
arrays. 
• 8 devices can connect to a daisy chain 
• This chain must be terminated at both ends 
• Each device on chain is assigned unique device ID 
number that is determined by jumpers or DIP 
switches
Installing and configuring SCSI 
• SCSI bus supports 8 devices 
• There are eight SCSI IDs numbered 0 through 
7 
• ID 7 is always reserved for the SCSI host 
adapter 
• SCSI hard disk, if used as a boot drive, is 
assigned SCSI ID 0 
• If you have both IDE and SCSI hard drive, 
IDE drive should be boot drive
Types of SCSIs 
• SCSI 1- 5 MB transfer rate, Centronics 50 pin 
or DB 25, has 8 bit bus 
• SCSI 2 -also SCSI Fast Wide, includes 16 bit 
bus , called Wide SCSI, and twice as fast 
transfer rate 
• SCSI 3- Includes Ultra SCSI, Wide Ultra 
SCSI, and Ultra 2 SCSI, 16 bit bus with up to 
80 MBps transfer rate
RAID 
• Redundant Array of Independent Disks 
• Category of disk drives that employs 2 or more 
drives in combination for fault tolerance (error 
recovery) 
• 10 levels of RAID 
• 3 on test will be: 
• RAID 0, RAID 3, RAID 5
RAID continued 
• RAID 0- Striped disk without parity 
• RAID 3- Parallel transfer with parity 
• RAID 5- Data striping with parity
How Data is Organized on Disk 
• Tracks- 
– circular areas of the disk 
– Length of a track one circumference of disk 
– Over 1000 on a hard disk 
– Data first written to outer most track 
• Sectors- 
– Divides tracks sections 
– On a floppy 9 sectors exits 
• Cylinders- 
– Logical groupings of the the same track on each disk surface in a disk 
unit 
• Clusters- 
– Groups of sectors used by operating system 
– 64 sectors in one cluster
Track= 
concentric 
circle 
Can store 
512 bytes 
Sector = 
small arc 
of track 
Tracks and sectors
Interleaving 
• Allows the read/write head to use the rotation 
of the disk to its advantage 
• One sector is written to and the disk skips to 
several sectors down
Formatting 
• Low level formatting done at factory 
– Builds the File Allocation Table (FAT) 
– Physically scans the disk media for defects 
• Remember FAT is always located at Track 0 
• High level formatting is automatically done 
during installation of operating system
Operating System File Systems 
• DOS uses FAT 
• Windows 3.x uses Virtual FAT 
• Win 95 uses VFAT and FAT32 
• Win NT uses NTFS
Partitioning 
• FDISK command is used 
• Divides hard drive into logical subdivisions 
which are seen by the operating system as 
separate logical hard disks. 
• Hard drives divided into primary and extended 
partitions. The primary partition boots the 
system. Can have up to 4 primary partitions
Partitioning 
• Extended can be divided up to 23 times on disk. 
• Partitioning disks improves disk efficiency through 
reduced cluster size. 
• In DOS, Win 3x and early versions of Win 95 a hard 
disk over 2 GB must be divided into smaller partions 
• Now Win 95 and Win 98 can create a primary 
partition of up to 8 GB 
• Following partition, the first sector on cylinder 0 
reserved for master boot record
Disk compression 
• Reduce amount of space taken up by files by 
substituting codes for repeating patterns of 
data 
• To access data on compressed disk, must load 
disk compression utility into RAM first 
• This disk compression utility works between 
OS and disk controller to intercept requests 
and compress or decompress files- the result is 
slower disk access
Backing up data 
• Archival: full backup- contains everything 
from the hard disk 
• Incremental: contains only files that have been 
modified since last (previous) backup 
• Differential: backs up all the data modified 
since last full backup 
• Copy backup: copy duplicate of file, directory, 
or disk to another disk
CD ROM 
• Capacity of 650 MB 
• Transfer speeds of around 24X speed 
– X refers to the transfer speed in the first CD ROM, 
which was 150 K 
• CD is the slowest device on PC 
• When installing to IDE system must be 
configured as slave 
• WORM and EO

Types of SCSIs • SCSI 1- 5 MB transfer rate, Centronics 50 pin or DB 25, has 8 bit bus • SCSI 2 -also SCSI Fast Wide, includes 16 bit bus , called Wide SCSI, and twice as fast transfer rate • SCSI 3- Includes Ultra SCSI, Wide Ultra SCSI, and Ultra 2 SCSI, 16 bit bus with up to 80 MBps transfer rate
  • 10. RAID • Redundant Array of Independent Disks • Category of disk drives that employs 2 or more drives in combination for fault tolerance (error recovery) • 10 levels of RAID • 3 on test will be: • RAID 0, RAID 3, RAID 5
  • 11. RAID continued • RAID 0- Striped disk without parity • RAID 3- Parallel transfer with parity • RAID 5- Data striping with parity
  • 12. How Data is Organized on Disk • Tracks- – circular areas of the disk – Length of a track one circumference of disk – Over 1000 on a hard disk – Data first written to outer most track • Sectors- – Divides tracks sections – On a floppy 9 sectors exits • Cylinders- – Logical groupings of the the same track on each disk surface in a disk unit • Clusters- – Groups of sectors used by operating system – 64 sectors in one cluster
  • 13. Track= concentric circle Can store 512 bytes Sector = small arc of track Tracks and sectors
  • 14. Interleaving • Allows the read/write head to use the rotation of the disk to its advantage • One sector is written to and the disk skips to several sectors down
  • 15. Formatting • Low level formatting done at factory – Builds the File Allocation Table (FAT) – Physically scans the disk media for defects • Remember FAT is always located at Track 0 • High level formatting is automatically done during installation of operating system
  • 16. Operating System File Systems • DOS uses FAT • Windows 3.x uses Virtual FAT • Win 95 uses VFAT and FAT32 • Win NT uses NTFS
  • 17. Partitioning • FDISK command is used • Divides hard drive into logical subdivisions which are seen by the operating system as separate logical hard disks. • Hard drives divided into primary and extended partitions. The primary partition boots the system. Can have up to 4 primary partitions
  • 18. Partitioning • Extended can be divided up to 23 times on disk. • Partitioning disks improves disk efficiency through reduced cluster size. • In DOS, Win 3x and early versions of Win 95 a hard disk over 2 GB must be divided into smaller partions • Now Win 95 and Win 98 can create a primary partition of up to 8 GB • Following partition, the first sector on cylinder 0 reserved for master boot record
  • 19. Disk compression • Reduce amount of space taken up by files by substituting codes for repeating patterns of data • To access data on compressed disk, must load disk compression utility into RAM first • This disk compression utility works between OS and disk controller to intercept requests and compress or decompress files- the result is slower disk access
  • 20. Backing up data • Archival: full backup- contains everything from the hard disk • Incremental: contains only files that have been modified since last (previous) backup • Differential: backs up all the data modified since last full backup • Copy backup: copy duplicate of file, directory, or disk to another disk
  • 21. CD ROM • Capacity of 650 MB • Transfer speeds of around 24X speed – X refers to the transfer speed in the first CD ROM, which was 150 K • CD is the slowest device on PC • When installing to IDE system must be configured as slave • WORM and EO
