(100 cards)
It is a piece of computer hardware used for saving, carrying, and pulling out data
Storage Device
It can be a device inside or outside a computer, cellphone, smart device or server
Storage Device
a software that’s embedded in a piece of hardware
Firmware
It is used to run user programs on the device and can be thought of as the software that enables hardware to run
Firmware
also known as main memory. Main memory is directly or indirectly connected to the central processing unit (CPU) via a memory bus. It continuously reads instructions stored there and executes as required
Primary Storage
is a form of computer memory that can be read and changed in any order, typically used to store working data and machine code
RAM
RAM acronym
Random Access Memory
This memory was used as the computer begins to boot up. This memory cannot be easily or quickly overwritten or modified
ROM
ROM acronym
Read Only Memory
It is not directly accessible by the CPU. Computer usually uses its input/output channels to access secondary storage and transfers the desired data using intermediate area in primary storage
Secondary Storage
The main, and usually largest, data storage device in a computer. It can store anywhere from 160 gigabytes to 2 terabytes
Hard Disk
Typically it involves a robotic mechanism which will mount (insert) and dismount removable mass storage media into a storage device
Tertiary Storage
A magnetically coat ed strip of plastic on which
data can be encoded. Tapes for computers are similar to tapes used to store music
Magnetic Tape
is any storage media that holds content in digital format and is read using a laser assembly is considered optical media
Optical Disk
Also known as disconnected storage. It is a computer data storage on a medium or a device that is not under the control of a processing unit. It must be inserted or connected by a human operator before a computer can access it again
Offline Storage
Data is managed remotely and made available over a network or internet
Online Storage
Preserved and maintained through proper record management
procedures that involve storing multiple requirements and guidelines to
consider. Aside from storing and maintaining digital and traditional outputs
in multimedia, assessing them based on the identified criteria in storage is
a vital component in prolonging the quality of the output
Digital Outputs
Files can also be placed in different storage options
that will allow accessibility and managing over-all
cost over the time
ASSESS FINISHED AND SELECTED WORK FOR STORAGE
refers to mediums of digitized information
broadcast through a screen and/or a speaker. This also
includes text, audio, video, and graphics that are
transmitted over the internet for viewing or listening to
on the internet
Digital Media
the digital data is encoded
as microscopic, magnetized needles on the
surface of the medium
Magnetic Media
THE DIGITAL
DATA IS ENCODED BY CREATING
MICROSCOPIC HOLES IN THE
SURFACE OF THE MEDIUM
Optical Media
encodes
digital data by applying small voltages of electricity
that temporarily induces a group of transistors either on
or off
Solid State Media
STORED ON REMOVABLE MEDIA SUCH AS ON AN
OPTICAL DISK OR MAGNETIC TAPE
