Macintosh File System

The Macintosh File System (MFS) was the original way Macintosh computers stored and organized files on disk, introduced in the 1980s. It managed files using a simple structure, where data was stored in fixed-size blocks with minimal organization. Over time, it was replaced by more advanced systems like HFS, which improved file management, support for larger disks, and additional features. In essence, MFS was the foundational system that allowed Macs to save, retrieve, and organize data efficiently, paving the way for more sophisticated file systems used today.
