Storage

What is storage?

p. 354 - 355 Fig. 7-1 Next

Holds data, instructions, and information for future use Storage medium is physical material used for storage

Also called secondary storage

Page 4: Chapter 7 Storage

Two Types of Storage (look at your notes)Magnetic – Uses magnetic fields to store data DISK

Hard drive

Floppy Drive

Optical – Uses laser light to store data DISC

CD’s

DVD’s

Blu-ray

Storage

What is capacity?

p. 356 Next

Kilobyte (KB) 1 thousand

Megabyte (MB) 1 million

Gigabyte (GB) 1 billion

Terabyte (TB) 1 trillion

Petabyte (PB) 1 quadrillion

Number of bytes (characters) a storage medium can hold

Exabyte (EB) 1 quintillion

Zettabyte (ZB) 1 sextillion

Yottabyte (YB) 1 septillion

Page 6: Chapter 7 Storage

Helpful Hint to remember

Mega- Million

Tera – Trillion

PEZY – like the Pez dispensers

Magnetic Disks

How does a hard disk work?

p. 360 Fig. 7-8 Next

Step 1.Circuit board controls movement of head actuator and a small motor.

Step 2.Small motor spins platters while computer is running.

Step 3.When software requests a disk access, read/write heads determine current or new location of data.

Step 4.Head actuator positions read/write head arms over correct location on platters to read or write data.

What is a head crash?

p. 360-361 Fig. 7-10 Next

Spinning creates cushion of air that floats read/write head above platter

Occurs when read/write head touches platter surface

A smoke particle, dust particle, or human hair could render drive unusable

Clearance between head and platter is approximately two-millionths of an inch

Step 1.Laser diode shines a light beam towarddisc.

Step 2.If light strikesa pit, it scatters. If light strikes a land, it is reflected back toward diode.

Step 3.Reflected light is deflected to alight-sensing diode, which sends digital signals of 1 to computer. Absence of reflected light is read as digital signal of 0.
