slack space
empty space on HDD created bc of the way HDD stores
Slack Space Ex.
one slot=512 bytes
two slots to save files=1024
if file is 824 bytes have 200 free but regardless he file will till take 2 slots
if file C is 2048 bytes it is 2 slots plus an additional 2 slots taken
-little bits of free bytes not actually available(the fragments go into slack space)
unallocated space
the free “bytes” where the fragments go
