What is a disk cluster?
A disk cluster is a location on a disk's surface that stores data. Most disks are divided into platters/cylinders, tracks, and sectors, and sectors are grouped into clusters when formatted with a file system.

What is the Ms-DOS Structure?
Disks are always divided up into tracks and sectors, as shown in figure. To access any particular block of data, the program first moves to the correct track, then has you wait while the spinning disk moves the correct sector under the head.

What is the use of ZBR in the context of disks?
Zone Bit Recording (ZBR) is used by disk drives to store more sectors per track on outer tracks than on inner tracks. It is also called Zone Constant Angular Velocity (Zone CAV or Z-CAV orZCAV).On a disk consisting of roughly concentric tracks - whether realized as separate circular tracks or as a single spiral track - the physical track length (circumference) is increased as it gets farther from the center hub.Physical layout of sectors in a zone-bit disc: As distance from the center increases, the number of sectors in a given angle increases from one (red) to two (green) to four (grey).The inner tracks are packed as densely as the particular drive's technology allows, but with a CAV drive the data on the outer tracks are less densely packed. Using ZBR the drive divides all the tracks into a number of zones, and the inner track of each zone is packed as densely as it can, with the other tracks in that same zone recorded with the same read/write rate. This permits the drive to have more bits stored in each track outside of the innermost zone than drives not using this technique. Storing more bits per track equates to achieving a higher total data capacity on the same disk area.[1]On a hard disk using ZBR, the data on the tracks in the outer most zone will have the highest data transfer rate. Since both hard disks and floppy disks typically number their tracks beginning at the outer edge and continuing inward, and since operating systems typically fill the lowest-numbered tracks first, this is where the operating system typically stores its own files during its initial installation onto an empty drive. Testing disk drives when they are new or empty after defragmenting them with some benchmarking applications will often show their highest performance. After some time, when more data is stored in the inner tracks, the average data transfer rate will drop, because the transfer rate in the inner zones is slower; often making people think their disk drive is slowing down over time.[1] Some other ZBR drives, such as the 800 kilobyte 3.5" floppy drives in the Apple IIGS and older Macintosh computers, don't change the data rate but rather spin the medium faster when reading or writing outer tracks, thus approximating constant linear velocity drives.
