<concept id="GUID-7C7DC797-3600-5EF8-A3E4-B44A7BCEE373" xml:lang="en"><title>Media

types</title><shortdesc>This topic describes the media types supported by

the file server..</shortdesc><prolog><metadata><keywords/></metadata></prolog><conbody>

<p>There are several types of file system media. For example,</p>

<ul>

<li id="GUID-7E4E072F-11FF-5C54-BAE2-59AB9F1B68A5"><p>the ROM: this is always

mapped to drive <filepath>z:</filepath>, and contains the operating system

code</p> </li>

<li id="GUID-73A8A963-AEFE-5B2C-9F28-3691232B15BB"><p>the RAM: a RAM drive

shares space with kernel and user program memory. This space is dynamically

allocated: there is no need for the owner of the machine to pre-allocate space.

The RAM drive is always mapped to drive <filepath>c:</filepath>.</p> </li>

<li id="GUID-54FE9E36-7197-5F7A-8AE3-746BA39BE548"><p>compact flash, accessed

through an ATA interface: this is the main supported removable media. Whether

there is a CF card slot, and what drive letters are allocated to it, are implementation

dependent. A typical choice would be to use <filepath>d:</filepath> for the

first partition on the first CF device.</p> </li>

</ul>

<p>Installable file systems may support other media.</p>
