There are many configurations of magnetic disks available. The simplest disk configuration is in the PC (Personal Computer) on one's desk. In the preceding table, this configuration is assigned an approximate relative cost of 1X. 1X is the base cost for the cost comparison of the disk configurations. The next configuration adds redundancy by storing the same data on two or more disks. This is assigned a relative approximate cost of 2X because the disk storage cost is roughly twice as much as the disk storage cost in a generic PC.
