hi professor i wanted to clarify for homework solution Q 2.b kindly correct me where i may be wrong

as per question
each track = no of sections per track = 450
each track = 450/15(each block = 15 sections) = 30 blocks
each track = 30 blocks
hence
track capacity = 30 blocks x 512 bytes (512 bytes per block )
track capacity = 15360 bytes

hi professor i just saw that the block was updated to sector i had already done my homework problem before as block size = 50 bytes before the update(changes) was made to the homework question, can u kindly consider the calculations with the block size = 512 bytes since the updates were made last moment?

Also Regarding the access time = 


0.03 + 0.0125 + 0.025  = 0.675
