Zusammenfassung:A computing device includes a storage device and a file system for storing and retrieving files on the storage device. The storage device includes storage space divided into sectors and the file system externally addresses the storage device on a per-sector basis, but internally divides each sector of the storage device into chunks and manages data within each sector on a per-chunk basis. Thus, the file system reads a chunk from or writes a chunk to the storage device by reading or writing the sector having the chunk.
