Which of the following statements about file allocation
methods is correct?

Question

Answer

In  contiguous
allocation , files are stored in scattered blocks, making random access
efficient.

Answer

In  indexed
allocation , a file’s blocks are always stored contiguously on disk.

In  linked allocation , the operating system uses an index table to directly access any block of the file.

Answer

In  linked
allocation , each file block contains a pointer to the next block, which
makes sequential access easy but random access slow.
