Filesystem Layout

A filesystem layout is how a computer organizes and stores files on its storage device, like a hard drive or SSD. It creates a structured map, dividing the storage into sections such as directories (folders) and files, allowing efficient access and management. Key components include the root directory (top level), subdirectories for organization, and data blocks where actual file content resides. This structure helps the computer quickly locate, read, and write data, ensuring smooth operation and easy file management. Think of it as a well-organized filing cabinet, but for digital information.
