Surface
Cylinder
Cluster
All of the above E. None of the above
Answer is Right!
Answer is Wrong!
The correct answer is B. Cylinder.
A cylinder is a set of tracks on a disk that are all at the same radius. The R/W heads do not need to be repositioned to access tracks on the same cylinder, which makes it the fastest way to access data on a disk.
A surface is a single side of a disk platter. The R/W heads need to be repositioned to access tracks on different surfaces.
A cluster is a group of sectors on a disk. The operating system uses clusters to store files.
E. None of the above is incorrect because a cylinder is a set of tracks on a disk, not a single track.
