witam, czy ktos moze przetlumaczyc ten tekst:
Floppy disks are so called because they consist of flexible plastic material which has a magnetizable surface.
The surface of a disk is divided into concentric circles or ‘tracks’, which are then divided into ‘sectors’. When you insert a blank disk into a disk drive, it must be ‘initialized’, or formatted, before information can be recorded onto it. This means that magnetic areas are created for each track and sector, along with a catalogue or ‘direcoty’ which will record the specific location of files.
When you save a file, the operating system moves the read/write heads of the disk drive towards empty sectors, records the data and writes en entry fot the directory. Later on, when you open that file, the OS looks for its entry in the directory, moves the read/write heads to the correct sectors, and reads the file into the RAM area.
Hard disks work in the same way as floppies. But they have important advantages: the can hold much more data and spain at higher speed, so you can store and retrive information much faster than with floppies. The speed at which a hard drive finds data is called ‘access time’ – or seek time. The average time is measured in milliseconds (ms). Most hard drives have an access time of 8 to 14 ms.
You have to distinguish between access time (e.g. 9 ms) and ‘data transfer rate’ (the average speed required to transmit data from a disk system to the RAM, e.g. at 10 megabits per second). Remember that the transfer rate depends also on the power of your PC.
If you only ude word-processing programs, you will need less storage capacity than if you use CAD, sound and animation programs. If you need an extra hard drive, you should consider the type of mechanism. There are ‘internal’ and ‘external’ drives which are both rigid disks sealed into the drive unit, either within or attched to the computer.
Another type of hard drive, known as ‘removable’, allows you to record data on ‘cartridges’, which can be removed and stored off-line for security purposes. Some systems allow you to back up your entrie PC on one disk.
Laptops use pocket-sized drives. Digital camreras and music players use microdrives with special cards.
A floppy disk drive spins at 360 revolutions per minute. A hard disk drive spins at 7,200 rpm and stores data on a stack od metal rotating disks, called platters.
