HDD Power Consumption VS Performance Hard Disk Drive- abbreviated as HDD is a data storage device used for storing and retrieving digital information using rapidly rotating disks coated with magnetic material. Magnetic hard-disk drives are used to store most of the data accessible by personal computers and workstations, as well as much of the data being processed by large enterprise servers. The data is stored digitally as tiny magnetized regions, called bits, on the disk. In this assignment

you turn your computer off all the data is lost. Think of it as short term memory. Long-term memory would be your Hard Drive. The hard drive can come in two forms. An HDD, which uses a rapidly spinning disk coated in magnetic material to store information. It has non-volatile memory, meaning it retains information when powered off. The other kind of hard drive is a Solid State Drive, or SSD. Solid State has significantly higher rates of transfer, better reliability, and lower latency access times

and stop and reverse the head direction to search for the data. While the disk is rotating continuously and it can provide random access of data so the read write operation is easier in disks than the magnetic tape. Read/Write operation in hard disk most hard disk consist of several coaxial platters, these platters continuously move around the axis. the collection of number of platters forms a cylinder the read/write head is over the surface the head traces a circle on the surface of the platter
