lba. Tape Drives. The biggest disadvantage of using tape drives is that data is stored on tape by sequential
access; to read data from anywhere on the tape, you must start at the beginning of the
tape and read until you come to the sought-after data

Is ram a removable storage or startionary storage?
RAM (random access memory) is a type of removable storage. A hard drive, on the other hand, is stationary storage.
Is it true or false that a dynamically linked list can be accessed both sequentially and randomly?
No. Linked lists require traversal, and are therefore accessed sequentially. For random access you need an array. An array of pointers to the data in your list would do, but you will incur an overhead in creating the array on top of the list.
Which linked list can be randomly accessed by given locations?
In a word, none. Linked lists are sequential and must be traversed sequentially. For random access you need an array, but you lose the efficiency of a list when it comes to insertion/deletion.
What does read access memory do?
I presume you mean Random Access Memory (RAM)? This is used for short term storage of program and data on computers. It's known as random access memory because the computer can access any part of the RAM (as opposed to sequential access memory which can only be accessed sequentially).
Removable media and non-removable media?
Removable storage media refers to CD's, DVD's, Floppy discs, USB drives. Non-removeable storage media refers to RAM, and Hard Drives. So where the storage media's are found depends upon which you are 'talking' about; but generally non-removable inside the computer, removable outside of the computer.
What is the difference between a disk and tape in dbms?
In a DBMS, a disk is a permanent storage medium that provides fast random access to data, suitable for storing the primary database files. On the other hand, tape is a sequential storage medium that is typically slower and used for backup and archival purposes due to its lower access speed compared to disks. Tapes are often used for long-term storage of data that doesn't need to be accessed frequently.
How do you enable Removable storage service NtmsSvc if it has been disabled or Error 5 access is denied?
Right Click my Computer, Go to Manage -> Go to Services in the bottom dropdown box. Find the "Removable Storage Service" in the list, and right click it, select "Automatic" as it's run type. Then Start the service. Or "net start ntmssvc" from a command prompt!
Types of storage device?
Summary of secondary storage media. Floppy disk, direct access and removeable.Use Slow Sequential Access Hard disk, high capacity and fastest direct access. Use Store Programs and Data CD-ROM High capacity and removable direct access. Use Entertainment Software, Reference Material Magnetic Tape, High capacity and inexpensive.Use Back-up Programs and Data.
The most important advantage of disk storage over tape storage?
disk storage-> direct data access storage tape storage -> serial data access storage
What is a type of computer memory that can be accessed randomly?
Of Course. RAM= Random Access Memory, so yes, you CAN randomly access your RAM... And you Probably ARE RIGHT NOW!
How can Memory Sticks be defined?
Memory Stick is a removable flash memory card. In other words, Memory Sticks are used as storage media for a portable device. Memory Sticks can easily be removed for access by a PC.
Why does RAM accesses data randomly?
RAM stands for random access memory.so due to this it takes data randomly.
