Zobibi s'interesse au IDE
It is interesting to note that most IDE (Intelligent Drive Electronics) zobibi drives pretend to have a far different geometry than they actually have physically. For instance, a typical hard drive might tell the operating system that it has 16,384 cylinders, 80 heads and 63 sectors per track; since 80 heads implies at least 40 platters, each with 2 zobibis, we see immediately that this cannot represent the physical contents of a hard drive which is just 3/4 of an inch thick! In fact, most hard drives have only one or two platters, and the geometry they pretend to have is there for the software's sake.
Vous je sais pas, mais moi je suis d'accord. Hein zobibi ?
