As data in binary format of 0 & 1 on hard drive sectors.
Yes, optical disks use a laser beam to read and write data on the disk. The laser beam is focused onto the surface of the disk to detect and interpret the patterns of pits and lands that represent the data stored on the disk.
David Gregg was the inventor of the optical disk.
the 1 bit memory is stored in the resistor............

An Optical Disk
it is a CD(Compact Disk) and a DVD (Digital Video Disk)
Ultimately on to some physical media device such as magnetic tape, disk, optical disk or solid state disk. However if the files are paper files they would be stored in a filing cabinet or box in an archive.
Optical disks are defined as "Write Once/Read Many" media. Some optical disk can be re-written. This is accomplished by burning the first layer smooth and writing the bit bubbles again. This can only happen a few times before the optical media is spent. Magnetic disks are defined as "Write Many/Read Many" media. This is what is needed for the continued operation of a computer over any extended duration.
no,harddisk is not an optical storage
an optical disk which stores data optically
