What is the average amount of time it takes to read one sector (512 bytes) of data? Your answer should be in seconds to three digits of precision (e.g., X.XXX s).

A given disk drive has the following parameters: Average seek time of 7 ms Rotates at 6000 RPM Transfers data at 100 MB/s What is the average amount of time it takes to read one sector (512 bytes) of data? Your answer should be in seconds to three digits of precision (e.g., X.XXX s).
Suppose we have a magnetic disk with the following parameters : • Average seek time = 6 ms • Rotation rate = 5400 RPM • Transfer rate = 100 MB/second • Sector size = 512 bytes What is the average time to read a single sector?
2) b. A disk drive has a speed of 12000 RPM, an average seek time of 5 ms, and a transfer rate of 140 MB/sec. How much time does it take to perform 50 random reads of 10 KB? (In other words, the 50 reads are from random spots on the drive, but each individual read is performed sequentially.) Give your answer in units of seconds. c. Given the same information as in b) above, what is the I/O rate...
Assume a rather old disk drive is configured as follows. The total storage is divided among 32 surfaces. There are 2048 tracks per sector. There are 512 sectors per track. There are 512 Bytes per sector. The interleaving factor is 4. The disk turns at 7200 rpm. The average startup time for the read/write arm is 15 ms and the average time to move the arm is 0.2 ms per track. Now assume that there is 8 MB file on...
What is the average I/O time if a 3600-RPM disk transfers an 800 KB block with a 7 ms average seek time, a 100 MB/sec transfer rate, and a 0.17 ms controller overhead?
A program must write 4 sectors onto a disk. Each sector is 0.5KB. The disk drive rotates at 10,000 rpm. The average seek time is 6 ms and the disk controller overhead is 1 ms. The transfer rate is 1 MB/sec. The current location of the R/W head is not known. What is the time to write this data if a. Sectors are on the same track and are contiguous b. Sectors are on the adjacent cylinders. The sectors can...
Question 7. A hard disk has the following parameters 8 surfaces 40,000 tracks per surface • 512 sectors per track 1024 bytes per sector Rotational speed 10,000 rpm a) What is the capacity of the drive? b) What is the rotational latency? c) Once a sector has been accessed, what is the rate at which data is read?
A disk rotates... Photo included has problem. A disk rotates at 15,000 RPM, and has 128 sectors of 512 bytes on a track. Once the head is on the desired track, at what rate are data accessed if the entire track is read? (Give answer as a number in MBps using the decimal network meaning, not the binary memory meaning of MB).
Suppose a disk drive in your system has a rotation speed of 7,200 rpm. and seek times of 0.75 ms track-to-track, or 22 ms full ‘stroke’ (inner edge to outer edge). (a) What is the average latency to access this drive? (b) If the sustained read rate is 36 Mbits/sec, how much more time after the average latency (you calculated above) will it take to read 750 Kbytes (assuming all those bytes are in sequential sectors on the same track)?...
