What is the purpose of a raid driver?
A RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) driver is used to enable a computer to utilize RAID, which could either improve hard drive performance or allow mirrors of pertinent data.
How the working of floppy disk drive differ from hard disk drive?
The head(s) in floppy drives make physical contact with the floppy disk surface, while the heads in hard disk drives fly over the hard disk surface on a cushion of air created by the platter rotation speed. All other features of the devices are similar.
How can you develop my country?
I can not develop your country, the development of your country is up to you and your countrymen/women.
What problem resulted in no drive detected except for the floppy drive?
Well not knowing your skill level I'll just give you a few things you can check and if you can't do it then I'm sure you'll be able to find someone. First, make sure that your hard drive is detected in BIOS, if not then change it to auto-detect and it will find your hard drive assuming your hard drive is in good shape. Reboot and if you get the same error then put your XP CD in the CD drive and reboot again. Enter the Recovery Console and fix MBR (Master Boot Record). If none of those work then your options are pretty slim. You probably gonna need a new hard drive. :
What is a floppy drive data cable?
a cable for connecting a floppy drive to the computer motherboard.
What is the advantage of using a pen drive over a floppy disk?
Size for one, and size for another.
The size of a pen drive can be under 1 square inch while a floppy disk is much large than that. Also, pen drives can carry anywhere from 128 Megabytes to 128 Gigabytes and possibly some larger.
What materials are used to make floppy discs?
Floppy disks generally had the following makeup:
- A thin, plastic disk that went practically all the way to the edge of whatever casing held the disk.
- A center hole made of firmer material than the disk itself that was used to move the disk in a circle as data was written to and read. Earlier designs were plastic, while later designs were metal.
- A thin coating of iron oxide on the inner plastic disk, on one or both sides (single density or double density), which "permanently" holds a magnetic charge if a strong magnet is placed near it.
- A rigid plastic outer shell to protect the flexible inner plastic disk (the reason they were called "floppy disks").
- On later models, there was a spring loaded metal sheath over the disk's main opening, which helped prevent dust buildup.
- Also on later models, a cotton-like substance was included in the disk's interior on both sides to help remove dust as the disk was spun.
- A small plastic tab (a sliding switch) was available on some floppies; when set to a particular position, the disk's drive controller would refuse to write data to the disk, making it "read only."
So, basically, a few bits of metal, a few bits of plastic, coated with some more metal, and a bit of cotton for good measure.
How can you save deforeststation?
we can save defarestation by banning hunts and also making forest squads.we should also put on charges to people seen cutting trees.
What will happen if you put steam in a balloon then put it in the refrigerator what will happen?
As the steam cools, the pressure will drop, and the balloon will get smaller.

What is the half-life of a disk?
The half-life of a disk is the time it takes the magnetic strength of the medium to weaken by half.
What are the disadvantages of using a floppy disk as a medium of storage?
The biggest disadvantage is that it has very little storage capacity.
The maximum storage capacity of a (last generation) floppy disk is around 240 megabytes. A USB stick, CD, or DVD-ROM can all hold much more than this.
Secondly, fewer and fewer computer termnials are being manufactured with floppy disk drives, since they have been replaced by other storage methods. This means it is hard to get your data off the disk.
Thirdly, floppy disks are more easily corruptible than other methods of data storage.
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 capacity of supercomputer floppy?
Supercomputers do not usually use any type of floppy disk, they usually use custom made high data rate hard disks and tape drives.
Modern supercomputers would typically use a RAID system of multiple disks providing a high reliability high data rate facility that looked to the computer's OS like a single drive with a capacity of several petabytes (or possibly exabytes by the time you read this).
What is the difference between a portable and fixed disk?
A Fixed hard disc is used to store operating system and not for storing applications which we needs portability. Also it stores any application which requires very fast access to data for both reading and writing.
On the other hand, a portable hard disc is used to store very large files which need transporting from one computer to another .
EDIT: This is completely wrong! A fixed hard disc can be used for the OS, yes, but applications can also be stored on there. A portable drive will usually have work files on so you can access them while out of the house.
