filesystem management

Filesystem management is the process of organizing, storing, and retrieving data on a storage device like a hard drive or SSD. It involves creating a structure—such as folders and files—that allows data to be efficiently located and accessed. The filesystem keeps track of where data is stored physically and logically, manages space allocation, and handles operations like reading, writing, renaming, or deleting files. Proper management ensures data integrity, optimal performance, and easy access, serving as the essential system that makes storing and retrieving information straightforward and reliable.
