Best Answer

The journey of a byte has two parts.

1.part that takes place inside the memory:

  • statement calls the operating system.
  • file manager (which is a part of the operating system which deals with I/O) will

- check if the operation is permitted

- locate the physical location where the byte will be stored

- find out if the sector (of the located physical location) is already in memory (in case it is not then call the I/O buffer)

- put the byte in the I/O buffer

- keep the sector in memory to see if more bytes will be written on the same file

2.part that takes place outside the memory:

  • I/O processor will wait for an external data path to become available
  • disk controller:

- I/O processor asks the disk controller if the disk drive is available for writing

- instructs the disk drive to move its read/write head to reach the right sector

- disk reaches the right sector and the byte is written

1 bytes is equal to how many bits?

One byte is usually 8 bits, but some computer systems used a 9-bit byte. A bit is a Binary digit. (0 or 1)And a nibble is a 4-bit byte. Sometimes used in simple machines such as washing machine or toaster.Back in early telegraphy days, paper tape was used for machine telegraphy. Its data was represented by 5 holes that could be punched across the width of a paper tape. Thus one could have 25 (= 32) characters.This became supplanted by paper tape with 8 possible holes in a row. Thus 28 different characters could be represented. (256 characters).A version of this was called ASCII code, American Standard Code for Information Interchange. And the electro-mechanical Teletype was the apparatus commonly used. This was in the (relatively recent) days before alpha-numeric symbols on an CRT screen.Anyway, hence the 8-bit Byte.
