Say I want to observe how the flow from file name to cluster on hard disc goes.

I get the inode number of I file (which is mapped in a directory data):

```
1863 autorun.inf

```

So, now i know that i have to look for the inode numbered `1863` which will contain the pointers to the data on the hard disc.

Where is the inode data located and how does the os know where to find it?
