Primary storage refers to the main memory of a computer, such as RAM, which is fast but temporary and volatile, meaning it loses data when power is off. Secondary storage, like hard drives and SSDs, is non-volatile and provides long-term data storage, retaining information even without power. Offline storage refers to any storage that is not directly accessible by the computer's operating system, such as external hard drives, USB drives, or magnetic tapes, which can be disconnected and used for backup or transfer purposes. In summary, primary storage is fast and temporary, secondary storage is slower but permanent, and offline storage is external and not directly connected to the system.
