Hard Disk Independent R/W Heads ???

hello
Yesterday I was reading about Hard disks and there was something about Read/Write Heads and sectors and disks etc ...
I would like to ask you if the heads are independent... if they work one by one... whell this may be strange but if yes, so the partition should be done acording with the priority of information and the heads...

thanks ;*)

No, the heads are on an assembly and move together. IMO it really does not matter how the drive is partitioned.
