Questions Asked in GATE CS exam
A disk of size 512M bytes is divided into blocks of 64K bytes. A file is stored in the disk using linked allocation. In linked allocation, each data block reserves 4 bytes to store the pointer to the next data block. The link part of the last data block contains a NULL pointer (also of 4 bytes). Suppose a file of 1M bytes needs to be stored in the disk. Assume, 1K = \(2^{10}\) and 1M = \(2^{20}\). The amount of space in bytes that will be wasted due to internal fragmentation is ___________.
