A sector is the smallest physical storage unit on an NTFS disk. The size of the data, expressed in power of two bytes, is typically 512 bytes. The smallest file allocation unit in NTFS, on the other hand, is called a cluster and is independent of sectors. It may consist of one or more adjacent sectors. As of right now, NTFS supports files up to 248 bytes in size. A straightforward yet effective method is used by NTFS to arrange data on a drive volume. Each element on a volume is a file, and each file is made up of a set of properties. To help secure user data, NTFS makes use of user-level encryption and access control lists, or ACLs. Thus, this chapter's goal is to manage the NTFS file system.
