What are the different methods of storing data in a program?

Program data can be stored in the program's data segment, on the stack or on the heap. Constants, static variables and global variables are always stored in the program's data segment. Local variables are always stored on the stack. Dynamic variables are always stored on the heap. User data is typically stored in files, but those files could exist literally anywhere, such as a local hard-disk drive, a file-server or "the cloud". However, data must be brought into working memory in order to operate upon it. Small amounts of data can be allocated within the data segment via static variables but generally you will use the heap. If the data is too large to fit into working memory all at once, use one or more temporary files on one or more local hard-disk drives and pull in what you need as and when you need it.


How do you format a not recognize external hard disk?

Where is all the data in your computer stored?

Data is actually stored in various places in a computer, mostly determined by how quickly it must be accessed:internal CPU registers for the data actually being processed nowcache memory for data that has been recently accessed that is likely to need to be accessed again soonmain memory (RAM) for data that will need to be available whenever neededvirtual memory (in a file on the hard disk) for data that is rarely needed but can be copied into main memory when neededinput/output files (on hard disk) for data that the program will need for the current job and for result data from the current job

What does the computer hard disk or CPU do?

What must happen before any data can be read or written on a hard disk?

the right place on the hard disk has to be found, then the read/write head must be placed there, then the sector (a small part of the hard disk) is read or written, if it's read, the data is moved into the memory, maybe by the DMA (Direct Memory Access) Controller. Is it's a write operation, the data must first be given to the Hard Disc Controller.
