Types of External Memory• Magnetic Disk• Optical• Magnetic Tape
Magnetic Disk• Disk – a circular platter constructed of nonmagneticmaterial called substrate• Disk is coated with a magnetizable material.• Substrate used to be aluminium• Now glass▫ Improved surface uniformity• Increases reliability▫ Reduction in surface defects• Reduced read/write errors▫ Better stiffness – to reduce disk dynamics▫ Greater ability to withstand shock and damage
