A disk quota is a limit set by a system administrator that restricts certain aspects of file system usage on modern operating systems. The function of using disk quotas is to allocate limited disk space in a reasonable way.
Input/output operations per second (IOPS, pronounced eye-ops) is an input/output performance measurement used to characterize computer storage devices like hard disk drives (HDD), solid state drives (SSD), and storage area networks (SAN).
A 2 GB disk-on-a-module with PATA interface DOM (disk-on-module) SSD. A disk-on-a-module (DOM) is a flash drive with either 40/44-pin Parallel ATA (PATA) or SATA interface, intended to be plugged directly into the motherboard and used as a computer hard disk drive (HDD). DOM devices emulate a traditional hard disk drive, resulting in no need ...
The range of measured mobile web use varies a lot by country, and a StatCounter press release recognizes "India amongst world leaders in use of mobile to surf the internet" [181] (of the big countries) where the share is around (or over) 80% [182] and desktop is at 19.56%, with Russia trailing with 17.8% mobile use (and desktop the rest).
High availability is a property of network resilience, the ability to "provide and maintain an acceptable level of service in the face of faults and challenges to normal operation." [3] Threats and challenges for services can range from simple misconfiguration over large scale natural disasters to targeted attacks. [4]
Resource Monitor, a utility in Windows Vista and later, displays information about the use of hardware (CPU, memory, disk, and network) and software (file handles and modules) resources in real time. [1] Users can launch Resource Monitor by executing resmon.exe (perfmon.exe in Windows Vista).
The term's usage is now ubiquitous. [citation needed] Other terms used include logical disk, [4] minidisk, [5] portions, [6] pseudo-disk, [6] section, [6] slice [7] and virtual drive. [8] One of the earliest such segmentation of a disk drive was IBM's 1966 [9] usage in its CP-67 operating system of minidisk as a separate segment of a hard disk ...
The first production IBM hard disk drive, the 350 disk storage, shipped in 1957 as a component of the IBM 305 RAMAC system. It was approximately the size of two large refrigerators and stored five million six-bit characters (3.75 megabytes) [18] on a stack of 52 disks (100 surfaces used). [27]
