    [e] A magnetic disk is a Mylar-or metallic platter on which electronic data are stored. Storage capacity of a disk depends on:
    Disk surface: the more the disk surface, the greater is its stor age capacity;  
    Bits per inch of track: Storage capacity depends on the number of bits that can be stored on an inch of track; both are directly proportional.
