A recycle-free directory entry system and method thereof applicable in a
file system are provided. The file system uses one or more directory
entries to record a unique file/directory name. The recycle-free
directory entry method consists of plural directory entries stored in a
storage device with a plurality of sectors, each sector only recording
all directory entries corresponding to a unique file/directory. Each
directory entry has a directory name field, a directory attribute field
and a reserve field. The directory name field records a filename of a
related file/directory. The directory attribute field records an
attribute of the related file/directory. The reserve field records an
identity byte, which indicates that all directory entries corresponding
to the related file/directory are exclusively recorded in a single
sector.
