Methods of Storage Magnetic Flash Optical

Magnetic Storage Storage device that codes data as microscopic magnetized needles on the disk's surface  The hard disk is the most common magnetic storage device  Storage capacity--terabytes

Flash Storage A type of constantly-powered memory that can be erased and reprogrammed in a single action or “flash.” Described as “solid-state” memory because there are no mechanical (moving) parts. Examples: flash drives, camera storage cards Some computers have a solid-state drive instead of the typical magnetic hard drive

Optical Storage Storage device that records data by burning microscopic holes in the surface of the disk with a laser  Compact disks  Digital video disks

Compact Disk (CD) Standard storage capacity: MB Three types:  CD-ROM, CD-R, CD-RW

Digital Video Disk (DVD) Standard storage capacity--4.7GB; there are formats that will hold at least double that There are three basic types, although others are available: DVD-ROM, DVD±R, DVD±RW
