A secondary storage device can be a hard drive or a CD/DVD drive connected to the secondary IDE motherboard connection.
A storage medium that holds information until it is deleted or overwritten. For example, a floppy disk drive or a hard disk drive is an example of a secondary storage device.
What else can I help you with?
What are the Types of storage devices in PC hardware?
Primary and Secondary storage.
Are magnetic disk and optical disk secondary storage devices?
Yes both are secondary storage devices. Primary storage devices include RAM & ROM. Secondary storage devices include magnetic disks like hard disks and cds(optical disks)
Examples of storage?
secondary storage , primary storage , temporary storage
What are examples of secondary storage devices?
Flash drives, back up storage units
CD and DVD drives are examples of?
CD & DVD are examples of Secondary Storage Devices.
Some storage devices?
It's a storage that is attached internally in the device's box.
What is secondary following in storage device?
Secondary following in storage devices refers to the process of retrieving data from secondary storage, such as hard drives or SSDs, after it has been initially loaded into primary storage (RAM). This process is essential for accessing larger volumes of data that cannot fit into primary storage. Secondary storage is typically slower than primary memory but offers greater capacity, making it crucial for data persistence and long-term storage. Common examples of secondary storage include hard drives, SSDs, USB drives, and optical discs.
What are the Characteristics of the secondary storage devices?
Features of secondary storage devices include the ability to quickly store information, mirror primary storage, and to be used in the event of catastrophic failure. USB flash drives are commonly used for secondary storage.
Why are disks considered secondary-and not primary-storage devices?
Disks are considered secondary storage devices because they are used for long-term data storage and are not directly accessible by the CPU. Unlike primary storage, such as RAM, which provides fast access to data that is actively being used, secondary storage devices like hard drives and SSDs store data persistently but require additional time for data retrieval. This distinction highlights the role of primary storage in facilitating immediate processing tasks, while secondary storage serves as a repository for larger volumes of data.
Are ROM and RAM examples of secondary storage media?
No. ROM and RAM are primary storage. Examples of secondary storage would be floppy disk, hard disk, flash drive, etc. haahahaha
What are primary storage and secondary storage in common?
both are the storage devices both store the data in binary form both are the costlier
What are the 10 secondary storage devices examples?
Typically random access memory (RAM) is the primary storage device and the slower rotating magnetic media (disc drive) is the secondary storage device. Other devices like USB thumb drives and other removable media are considered tertiary (3rd level) storage devices
