TAILIEUCHUNG - Lecture Operating system concepts (Fifth edition): Module 14 - Avi Silberschatz, Peter Galvin

Module 14 - Tertiary storage structure. Chapter 2 introduced the concept of primary, secondary, and tertiary storage. In this chapter, we discuss tertiary storage in more detail. First we describe the types of storage devices used for tertiary storage. Next, we discuss the issues that arise when an operating system uses tertiary storage. Finally, we consider some performance aspects of tertiary storage systems. | Module 14: Tertiary-Storage Structure Tertiary Storage Devices Operating System Issues Performance Issues Operating System Concepts Tertiary Storage Devices Low cost is the defining characteristic of tertiary storage. Generally, tertiary storage is built using removable media Common examples of removable media are floppy disks and CD-ROMs; other types are available. Operating System Concepts Removable Disks Floppy disk — thin flexible disk coated with magnetic material, enclosed in a protective plastic case. Most floppies hold about 1 MB; similar technology is used for removable disks that hold more than 1 GB. Removable magnetic disks can be nearly as fast as hard disks, but they are at a greater risk of damage from exposure. Operating System Concepts Removable Disks (Cont.) A magneto-optic disk records data on a rigid platter coated with magnetic material. Laser heat is used to amplify a large, weak magnetic field to record a bit. Laser light is also used to read data (Kerr effect).
