Answer:
a)$720896000$
c)$17,203,200 \frac{\text{Bytes}}{\text{sector}}$
Explanation:
The size of the zone $=\text{platter} \times \text{cylinders}\times \frac{\text{sectors}}{\text{track}}\times \frac{\text{Bytes}}{\text{sector}} $
Capacity of zone 1: $16 \times 100\times 160 \times 512 = 131072000\;\text{Bytes}$
Capacity of zone 2: $16 \times 100\times 200 \times 512 = 163840000\;\text{Bytes}$
Capacity of zone 3: $16 \times 100\times 240 \times 512 = 196608000\;\text{Bytes}$
Capacity of zone 4: $16 \times 100\times 280 \times 512 = 229376000\;\text{Bytes}$
Sum$=131072000 + 163840000 + 196608000 + 229376000 = 720896000$
(c) The rate of data transfer will be maximum when the cylinders are being written or read in the outermost zone.
In the outer zone, in one second, $280$ sectors are being read $120$ times.
Thus the maximum data rate $= 280 \times 120 \times 512 = 17,203,200 \;\frac{\text{Bytes}}{\text{sec}}$
