Glossary
extent
There are two definitions:
1) For the volume structure and ECMA-119 file structure, an extent is defined as
a set of logical sectors, the logical sector numbers of which form a continuous
ascending sequence. The address, or location, of an extent is the number of the
first logical sector in the sequence.
2) For the UDF file structure, an extent is defined as a set of logical blocks,
the logical block numbers of which form a continuous ascending sequence. The
address, or location, of an extent is the number of the first logical block in
the sequence. |
