Answer:
[tex]Capacity = 2.048GB[/tex]
Explanation:
Given
[tex]Tracks = 10000[/tex]
[tex]Sectors/Track = 400[/tex]
[tex]Bytes/Sector = 512[/tex]
[tex]Platter =2[/tex]
Required
The capacity
First, calculate the number of Byte/Tract
[tex]Byte/Track = Sectors/Track * Bytes/sector[/tex]
[tex]Byte/Track = 400 * 512[/tex]
[tex]Byte/Track= 204800[/tex]
Calculate the number of capacity
[tex]Capacity = Byte/Track * Track[/tex]
[tex]Capacity= 204800 * 10000[/tex]
[tex]Capacity= 2048000000[/tex] --- bytes
Convert to gigabyte
[tex]Capacity = 2.048GB[/tex]
Notice that the number of platters is not considered because 10000 represents the number of tracks in both platters
