Hard Disk Drives

Depending on how big your hard drive is. You can go to "My computer" on your laptop or PC and then right click and go to properties and then a screen will pop up and it will tell you how many bytes it has. :)

from a true gamers perspective, it is my humble opinion that one drive is best. like a chain, a computer is only as fast as its slowest part. and rarely do I feel that the hardrive access time is the "bottleneck". if you have a slow video card then you will see it in the games...does having two harddrives make games run faster? possibly yes. but the difference is not huge. load times will tighten I suppose and if your dead set on extreme gaming performance then you may want a "RAID array hardware setup. which for the most part is TWO harddrives working together. it is faster, more advanced, more complicated and more expensive than just one hardrive. however if your just looking for a solid machine for games. money is better spent on a midrange hardrive and high quality videocard or processor perhaps.

so the short answer: two hardives can be setup to be faster than one and (money aside) will inevitably aid most tasks done by your computer including gaming.

A hard drive becomes fragmented when a file that occupies a finite storage location on the hard drive is modified and becomes larger. If the finite storage space on the drive is not large enough to store the larger modified file, part of the file must be stored in another location that is not contiguous to the original storage location. Thus the file becomes fragmented. Now your computer must search for the file in two different locations in order to retrieve it. This is what causes your computer to slooow down.

This is called "Formatting"

Usually, the hard drive connects to the motherboard.

The A: and B: drives on a desktop computer are reserved in the BIOS for floppy disk drives. As most computers only come with one floppy disk drive only the A: drive will be visible in file explorer. If a second floppy disk drive is fitted then both A: and B: drives will be visible. Computers used to have a B: drive. It was the second floppy drive. Since people no longer copy from one floppy to another, the B: drive (and on some newer models the A: drive) has become obsolete.

firewire and usb

ram is primary storage

BIOS

Yes, deleted files can be recovered with the help of Stellar Data Recovery.It is always better to contact the technical experts for recovery as it does not create any problems. They keep your information confidential and give you satisfactory results.

it called bootsector

after POST boot sector is write in address 0:7c00

boot sector for running have a signature ,in its 510 th address it shoud have 0xaa55h

On normal SATA it is 15. IDEs is much more, 64 i think. Or maybe double or trible.

But if you are using fdisk from terminal in linux, it is noo problem to make more than 15 partitions on a SATA. I made 60 before it hit the max. These are empty partitions which are now easily modified by programs like gparted.

A Backup

The technical name is cloning.

Click on "Start" followed by clicking on "Search" and a window called "Search Results" will be displayed. Towards the middle-top of the window, you will see the word "Folders" along with a Folders "icon". Click on either the word "Folders" or the Folders "icon" and the left side of the window will now display the path of the Recycle bin. In actuality, the Recycle bin is a subset or "child" of the "Desktop" folder.

A magnetic platter is something that is found in your computerÃ?s hard drive. It is the actual place where the data is stored, is shaped like a flat disc, and made of metal.

You can use CleanMyMac, OnyX or some other cleaning applications

what is the diminutive of disk

Primary drives are hunger and thirst. Secondary drives might be money

DMA:Direct Memory Access. A technique for transferring data from main memory to a device without passing it through the CPU. Computers that have DMA channels can transfer data to and from devices much more quickly than computers without a DMA channel. This is useful for making quick backups and for real-time applications. Some expansion boards, such as CD-ROM cards, are capable of accessing the computer

Toothbrush

As with all Microsoft Operating systems, they can support a maximium of 23 drive letters. This is excepting A & B for the floppy drives (old DOS support) and C for the first primary hard drive.

Most common is a 4 PIN connector that comes conntected to the power supply or jumped from another 4 PIN connector. The pins will be in a streaght line. There are now also SATA power connectors that once side "flat and long" connects the the CD drive and the other "fat and short" 4 PIN female end to connect to a 4 pin male end
