Depends on how much memory you will need:
100-700 MB=Compact Disc
2-32 GB=Flashdrive
100-2000 GB(2 TB)=Portable Hard Drive
MB=Mega Byte
GB=Giga Byte
TB=Tera Byte
add From a historic point of view, the most dependable forms of information storage have been Cuneiform; writing on paper; and wax cylinders.
Modern substrates such as magnetic tape have been found wanting, as have some CD formats.
Flash drives and similar storage devices are susceptible to irradiation.
Magnetic disks are susceptible to magnetic fields.

What is the long term storage device?
ans-the long term storage device is that in which data is permanently stored in the form of file.for example-hard-disk.
What does storage do?
The purpose of storage in web hosting is to store electronic data. With the modern cloud storage, you can access your data from any location as long as you are connected to the Internet.
Is hard disk an output device?
No, it's really a memory device. It can be used to store data for a long time.
Is an usb flash drive an input or output device?
A USB Flash drive is considered a storage medium. Data can be both read, stored, and sent to / from a USB Flash drive, but it does not in itself input or output any data.
Are storage devices able to hold any size complex programs?
As long as your device has enough space for it, a storage device can always (I think) store a program of any size. An example of this is your computer's internal hard drive, which is a storage device even though it is not removable.
What is the storage capacity of DNA and how does it compare to other data storage methods?
The storage capacity of DNA is extremely high, with the potential to store vast amounts of data in a very small space. DNA can store up to 215 petabytes (215 million gigabytes) of data in just one gram. This is significantly more than traditional data storage methods like hard drives or flash drives, making DNA a promising option for long-term data storage.
Working of tape drive?
A tape drive is a data storage device that uses a magnetic tape to store and retrieve data. The drive reads and writes data by moving the tape past a read/write head. Data is stored on the tape in sequential order, allowing for reliable and cost-effective long-term storage of large volumes of data. Tape drives are commonly used for backup and archiving purposes in data centers and enterprise environments.
Which device on the computer can store data in long term?
Harddisk stores data for long term, it is also said as rom.
What are the similarities between USB flash drive and RAM?
They are both storage devices -They are both binary system to represent data
What is the small piece of equipment that the computer writes information on to?
Computers write information /data onto some kind of memory device of the which there is a great variety. There are devices for temporary storage and long-term storage.
Distinguish between primary storage and secondary storage?
Primary storage, also known as main memory or internal memory, refers to the storage space in a computer that is directly accessible to the processor. Primary storage is typically used to store data and instructions that are currently being used or processed by the computer. Secondary storage, also known as external memory, refers to storage space that is not directly accessible to the processor, but is used to store data and instructions for longer periods of time. Secondary storage is typically used to store data that is not currently being used, but that needs to be kept for future reference. There are several key differences between primary storage and secondary storage: Speed: Primary storage is generally faster than secondary storage, as it is directly accessible to the processor. This means that the processor can access and retrieve data from primary storage more quickly than it can from secondary storage. Capacity: Primary storage is typically smaller in capacity than secondary storage. This is because primary storage is used to store data that is currently being used or processed, while secondary storage is used to store data that is not currently being used. Cost: Primary storage is typically more expensive than secondary storage, as it requires faster and more expensive memory chips. Volatility: Primary storage is generally volatile, meaning that it is lost when the power is turned off. In contrast, secondary storage is non-volatile, meaning that it retains data even when the power is turned off. Location: Primary storage is located inside the computer, while secondary storage is typically external to the computer and is connected to the computer through a port or interface.
Can you store data in the CPU for a long time?
Hmmm, a CPU (processor) stores no data. RAM or Memory can store data as long as the computer is ON and the Hard Drive can store data indefinately (forever).
