Definition of computer storage devices:

The storage device is a hardware device that is used to store data and information. They Provide one of the core functions of the modern computer. They come in different sizes and shapes depending on the needs and functionalities.

 

 

 

 

Types of storage:

Primary storage

A primary storage device is any storage device or component that can store nonvolatile data in computers, servers, and other computing devices. It is used to hold/store data and applications temporarily or for a shorter period of time while the computer is running.

RAM

This is called Random Access Memory because any of the data in RAM can be accessed just as fast as any of the other data. This is generally located on the motherboard of the computer.

 Secondary storage

Secondary memory is not directly accessible by the CPU. The computer usually uses its input/output channels to access secondary storage and transfers the desired data using an intermediate area in primary storage.

Hard disk is an example for secondary storage.

 

 

 

Types of computer storage devices

There are four types of computer storage devices,

Magnetic storage devices

Optical storage devices are devices that use lasers to read and write data to discs. They are commonly used to store music, movies, and data

· Compact Disc (CD)

·

· USB Flash Drive

USB means Universal Serial Bus. This is a small, portable flash memory card that plugs into a computer’s USB port and functions as a portable hard drive.

· Memory Card

A memory card is an electronic flash memory storage disk commonly used in consumer electronic devices such as digital cameras, MP3 players, mobile phones, and other small portable devices. These are usually read by connecting the device containing the card to the computer, or by using a USB card reader.

Online Cloud storage devices

Cloud storage is a cloud computing model in which data is stored on remote servers and accessed over the internet or through a dedicated private network connection.

Dropbox, Google Drive, iCloud, Microsoft One Drive,  are some examples for online cloud storage
