Hello,
What is difference between? I'm confused o_O
Disk buffer: The area of memory where blocks reside temporarily is called the disk buffer
Buffer Blocks: The blocks residing temporarily in main memory are referred to as buffer blocks

Disk buffer in main memory?(Ram?)

In computer storage, disk buffer (often ambiguously called disk cache or cache buffer) is the embedded memory in a hard disk drive (HDD) acting as a buffer between the rest of the computer and the physical hard disk platter that is used for storage
