Hard Disk Drive Storage is the most commonly used for high-capacity storage. Flash memory storage in the form of Solid-State Drives are slowly replacing HHDs, however, since they are faster and wear based on data transfer, rather than run time. R.A.M. is also used in every computer for temporary memory since it has a greater read-write speed than these other two kinds of memory. Other storage methods include optical disk drives (CD/DVD drive), "Thumb" (Flash) drives, and the older methods of magnetic disk storage: Floppy Disks and Zip Drives.

How is math related to computers?
Computers would be useless lumps of plastic and metal without maths. These are few of the many ways in which mathematical techniques are used: Data storage requires binary arithmetic. It can also require compression techniques. Data processing uses logic circuits. It also requires algorithms.
Compare scientific computers to large business computers?
scientific computers can be any computer that can record data, usually large business computers are data transferring and data storage computers, unless your talking about office workers, then that's a different story. scientific computer are mostly used to crucnch data information as mathematics and formulas. Large or main frame comuters are to collect data and storage of data.
The clustering techniques that can be used in segmenting?
Clustering techniques that can be used in segmenting usually require computers to group people based on data from market research.
What computers are used for central storage and process large amounts of data?
A Mainframe OR A Super computer
Where and why ROM and RAM is used?
ROM (Read-only memory) is storage used in the older computers. It can not be modified or changed in any way. It is mainly used to distribute firmware. RAM (Random-access memory) is a form of storage data, which most modern computers use. RAM can be bought in strips and slot into computers circuit boards.
3 A storage device is used to store data when the data is not being used in memory?
Storage device

Does floppy disk have the least storage capability to computers?
If your asking about them being the smallest capacity of any type of storage median for computers, then yes and no. They really are the smallest "Modern" storage medium for computers. But during the 1980's systems like the Commodore PET and 64 used cassette tapes to store data. Those held about 32KB.
How many techniques used to discard data?
Three type of techniques used
Can XML be used to for data storage?
Yes, XML can be used for data storage. XML store data in the form of nodes and sub-nodes.
What is the storage of computer data?
The definition of computer storage is a data storage that is often called storage of memory refer to computer components and recordings media that retains digital data used.
