Detailed explanation-1: -Detailed Solution. The correct answer is Shockley. The Shockley diode is a four-layer semiconductor diode, which was one of the first semiconductor devices invented.
Detailed explanation-2: -Hard disk drive components include the spindle, disk platter, actuator, actuator arm and read/write head.
Detailed explanation-3: -A read/write head is a specific physical part of a hard disk that is responsible for reading data from, and writing data to, the disk. Read/write heads are typically made up of a thin horizontal magnetic blade attached to an actuator arm.
Detailed explanation-4: -A disk read-and-write head is the small part of a disk drive which moves above the disk platter and transforms the platter’s magnetic field into electrical current (reads the disk) or, vice versa, transforms electrical current into magnetic field (writes the disk).
