The difference between storage media and data media is that data media allows data to pass through them unlike the later which keeps (stores) data. Examples of storage media are compact disk (CD) and hard disk whereas examples of data media are telephone lines, coaxial cable and LAN.
a. Storage data refers to the apparatus for recording computer data, storage media are the materials on which data are written and stored ex. for storage data are, phones, tablets, ipads, ipods, usb's ex for storage media are, Hard drive, external hard drive, floppy disk, memory stick, CD-ROM and Recordable DVD are all
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.
the amount of data,generally measured in numbers of bytes,that can be held by a specific storage media.
Yes.
They hold stuff until you need it later. Computer storage devices are machines that read stored data from storage media such as CDs.
A storage device stores data onto a storage medium. For example a tape backup device writes data onto tape medium
Magnetic storage media are items like floppy and hard disk drives. They are based on magnetic transfer of data between the heads and the computer.
Volatile storage: if storage media loses data while power goes off, it is termed as volatile storage media for example RAM. It is the fastest among the three in terms of data access time. Non-volatile storage: If storage media retains data even while power goes off, it is termed as non-volatile storage media. For example: hard disk. It is faster than stable storage but slower as compared to volatile storage. Stable Storage:Information that is residing in stable storage is certainly not lost (theoretically). A natural catastrophe may result in a loss if not the probability of data loss is negligible. For example by using multiple hard disks as in the case of RAID technology. This is the slowest of all storage media mentioned above.
It generally means storage that is temporary. Often that is expressed by the data disappearing when the computer is turned off. A less volatile medium, such as a hard drive, would keep data even while off.
The purpose of tiered storage is the assignment of different categories of data to different types of storage media in order to reduce total storage cost.
