FAT File System Components
|
FAT TableFile allocation table (FAT) – DOS records disk space usageCluster – minimum space allocated to a fileFAT12, FAT16, and FAT32FAT16 – used on hard disksFAT32 – available since Windows 95 OEM SR2FAT12 – used on floppy disksThe number refers to the size of each entry in the FAT table. Length of entry limits the number of entries the FAT table can hold.How Cluster Size Affects Partitions FAT16 file system limited to 65,525 clustersMaximum cluster size 32,768 bytes (32K)65,525 x 32,768 = 2GB (maximum partition size supported by the FAT16 file system) Root Directory and Other Directories The FAT and the root directory are the two primary components of the FAT file systemDOS uses the FAT to record the location of a file on the diskA directory is a place where DOS stores information about files, including a referenceto the FAT tableRoot directory is the top level directoryRoot Directory and Other Directories (continued)Parent directory contains other directoriesChild directory (subdirectory) is within a parentEach directory entry contains the name of a file or directory, the time and date of its creation or modification, its size, attributes, and beginning cluster information
