FILE SYSTEM 2
Introduction:
The file system is a procedure that is able to manage where and how data on a hard
disk or typically a storage disk is accessed, stored and managed. This is a logical disk
component which can manage the internal operations of a disk as this relates to one computer
as well as it is abstract to a user (Heuser et al., 2016). The file systems manage typically the
operations like file naming, management of storage, folders or directories, access rules,
metadata and privileges. The purpose of this paper is to discuss about the commonly used file
systems such as android file system, NTFS and EXT4 file system.
Android file system:
The directories and partitions of the system are protected as well as unless a device is
rooted, normally a user cannot access to the some of the file managers (Lee et al., 2015). The
partitions as well as the physical disks appear under the root as a directory as well as it does
not having a drive letter such as in windows. Normally, Android does not come with a default
file manager, so the user has to install an external file manager application for locating and
managing the folders and files.
