Consider a virtual cylinder identical to the one shown in Figure 7.12 with the following characteristics: seek time is 4 ms/track, search time is 1.7 ms/sector, and data transfer time is 0.6 ms. Calculate the resulting seek time, search time, data transfer time, and total time for the following Request List, assuming that the read/write head begins at Track 0, Sector 0. Finally, calculate the total time required to meet all of these requests. Fill in each cell in the table below with justification.

- Using an identical environment to the previous question, calculate the resulting seek time, search time, data transfer time, and total time for the following Request List, assuming that the read/write head begins at Track 3, Sector 0. Calculate the total time required. Fill in each cell in the table below with justification outside the table.
