Assume we have a mechanical hard drive with the following characteristics:

number of surfaces - 2 (this is a double-sided disk, a single read/write arm holds both read write heads)
number of tracks per surface - 500
number of sectors per track - 20
number of bytes per sector - 1024

in general, information is stored on a disk not at random but in specific locations that to minimize the time it takes to retrieve that information. using the specifications above, where would you store the information in a 50 kb file on the disk to speed up subsequent access to that information.
