Raw device deals with sectors the smallest units in disks which is 512 Bytes

Block device deals with blocks which are 8 K Bytes each in Solaris.

Lokesh

• Apr 25th, 2012

/dev/dsk-block device /dev/rdsk -raw device

In /dev/rdsk if the data which is written did not used full 512bytes of a sector then for the next time we cannot use the left space.

where as /dev/dsk maintains a buffer memory from where the data is copied to disk so there is no loss of space.
