Storage Devices And Media

Akopọ

Switch a computer off and everything in its main memory vanishes. So how do your photos, documents, apps and the operating system itself survive? They live in secondary storage: the hard drive, the SSD, the memory card, the DVD. These devices hold data permanently, long after the power is gone, and they come in three great families, magnetic, optical and solid-state, each with its own way of holding the ones and zeros.

In this lesson you will learn the crucial difference between a storage device and the storage medium it reads, then explore the three technologies in turn: magnetic drives and tape, optical CDs, DVDs and Blu-ray, and solid-state SSDs, pen drives and memory cards. You will learn how each stores data, what it is best used for, and how to weigh capacity, speed, cost and portability so you can pick the right storage for any task.

Akọ̀wé Ẹ̀kọ́

Every system you study, from a phone to a bank's data centre, depends on storing data reliably. Choose the wrong storage and you face a system that is too slow, too small or too fragile: tape is hopeless for real-time work, but unbeatable for cheap long-term backup. Examiners give you scenarios, archiving years of records, backing up a laptop, distributing a film, and expect you to name the right storage and justify it. Knowing how each technology works, and its trade-offs, is what earns those marks.
