摘要： Systems, apparatuses, and methods for preserving geographic metadata are disclosed. An electronic device may be configured to receive file data from an external device or network, obtain geographic metadata corresponding to the file data, identify non-reserved storage segments for storing the file data, and identify reserved storage segments for storing the geographic metadata. The reserved storage segments may be data clusters or data sectors. In certain embodiments, the reserved storage segments are identified based on the non-reserved storage segments. The electronic device may also be configured to write the file data to the non-reserved storage segments and write the geographic metadata to the reserved storage segments. Additional embodiments include systems, apparatuses, and methods for configuring a data storage device to preserve geographic metadata by storing the geographic metadata in reserved data segments.
