I know this is ultra general, but Ive always wondered how pictures or sound is written to a drive. I understand slightly that data is stored as little bits of sequences of on or off switches, but if you were to write out a drive in english what would that look like for pictures. Does each pixel have a specific code like the #F000F4 or however you see them online? Hope there can be some sort of minor explanation. Thanks.

Everything on a computer is stored binary. 1’s and 0’s. So if you were to look up a completely raw file without the computer converting it into something readable for you, it would look something like this:
1110101010101101101110101010110111010101100101000101001011010110010101101101011010010101111010101010100010101011110110101100001011010101011011011011
etc.
