2  INTRODUCTION  DEFINITION  HISTORY  COMPONENTS  INTERFACES  CONCLUSION

3  A hard disk drive(HDD) is a data storage device used for storing and retrieving digital information using rapidly rotating disks ( platters ) coated with magnetic material.  An HDD retains its data even when powered off. Data is read in a random- access manner, meaning individual blocks of data can be stored or retrieved in any order rather than sequentially.

4  HDDs were introduced in 1956 as data storage for an IBM real-time transaction processing compute rand were developed for use with general purpose mainframe and mini computers.  The first IBM drive, the350 RAMAC, was approximately the size of two refrigerators and stored 5 million 6-bit characters (the equivalent of 3.75 million 8-bit bytes or 3.75 MB or megabytes) on a stack of 50 disks.  In 1961 IBM introduced the model 1311disk drive, which was about the size of a washing machine and stored two million characters.  As the 1980s began, HDDs were a rare and very expensive additional feature on PCs; however by the late 1980s, their cost had been reduced to the point where they were standard on all but the cheapest PC.

5  Disk platters.  Read/write heads.  Spindle motor.  Stepper motor.  Logic board.  Cables & connectors.  Configuration items (such as jumpers &switches).

6  Traditionally made from a magnetic material, in the flat disk part of the drive.  The data stored in the platter.  Desire for higher density has led to the use of platters  made of glass (glass ceramic composite).

7  A:Track  B:Geometrical sector  C:Track sector  D:Cluster  Storage capacity: Its having a fourmula shown below: storage capacity=number of cylinder’s*tracks percylinder* sector per tracks*bytes per sector.

8  When pure chasing a hard disk drive, the term megabytes, gigabytes or terabytes may be confusing terms. The following table gives you an example of each of these terms and how theycompare to other sizes.

9  The heads read and write the information to the drive platter.

10  Motor that spins the platters.  Connected directly to the drive.  All the platter moves in the same direction.

11  Use stepper motors for controlling read/write head position.

12  Mounted on the hard drive.  Contain electronics that control the drive’s spindle, head actuator systems, and present the data to the controller.

13 They are three types of interfacing in hard disk  EIDE  SATA  SCSI 1/- EIDE (Enhanced Integrated Device Electronics) PATA (Parallel Advanced Technology Attachment)  It has a 40 pin connector.  Data transfer rate is 133mbps.  when installed this type of hard drives ensure that the jumpers are correctly configured.  If you have two devices connected to one IDE controller.

14 2/- SATA (Serial Advanced Technology Attachment)  It has a 7pin connector.  It is the latest high-speed type of hard drive connectors.  Data transfer rate is 300mbps. As there are faster than old IDE interface.  the latest hard drives are using this type of interface.  As there are faster than old IDE interface. If the motherboard have the SATA connectors/sockets as shown the picture.

15 3/- SCSI (Small Computer System Interface)  It has a 50 or 68 pin connector.  The data transfer rate is 600Mb/s.  These require a SCSI adapter card connected into the system.  Nowadays, most desktop computers did not use the SCSI.

16  A hard disk has revolutionised the digital age as we know it. Hard disks are the most widely used technology for storage of our information and data. Without hard disks the computer digital age we live in would not be the same.  What Are Characteristics of a Hard Drive?  Available Storage Space  Data Access Performance  Device Form Factor and Connection
