- How does a file differ from a directory?arrow_forwardA) Computer storage manufacturers market their drives in terms of decimal (base 10) capacity like '8TB' of the above PCS product. If you pay $400 for this product, you are buying 8 terabyte (TB) or 8,000,000,000,000 bytes personal cloud storage drive. However, when it is connected to and used by your computer of Windows or some older versions of Mac OS, the operating system will display its capacity in terms of binary (base 2). For example, if Windows or Mac OS (older ones) reports/displays a storage drive's capacity as 5KB, it means 5 x 210 bytes, which is 5 x 1024 or 5120 bytes, not 5000 bytes. In other words, when you read the capacity of a storage which is labeled as 5KB by the manufacturer, your computer will show only 5000/1024 KB or 4.883 KB capacity. This explains why a storage capacity often appears to be less than advertised when displaying in Windows or some Mac operating systems. If you understand this, what actual capacity (in the form of x.xxx TB) would you see in Windows…arrow_forward- Dynamic RAM, as opposed to Static RAM, is generally used as main memory in a computer system because it A consumes acceptable power has higher speed has lower cell density D needs refreshing in circuitry.
