Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A cylinder is a column of tracks that are all at the same position on multiple disk platters. This arrangement allows a read/write head to access multiple related tracks at the same time, which can improve performance. Sectors are individual segments on a track, tracks are circular paths on a single platter, and heads are components that read and write data to the disk.
