Data Storage Devices

slow seek time, read only/limited rewrite cycles

If the computer is writing to the USB drive at the moment when you disconnect the device, then you could have, for example, a file on the drive with a beginning and no end. Also, if the computer is dependent on things that are stored on the USB drive, then it needs to know before these files disappear. Before you remove a USB drive, the operating system needs to check with all of the running applications to make sure that it is OK. -DJ Craig

Given that you have a floppy disc drive then yes you can.

you need to "write protect" your floppy disk.if you turn the floppy disk over you will see a little tab on the lower right hand corner,push this tab down until you can see the hole through it.your disk is now write protected and cannot be overwritten.

No. An AVI file might fit. MIGHT fit. However, a 4.7GB DVD-R or DVD+R would be better.

DOM - Disk on Module is a Flash (Fast electronic memory) Disk with 40/44 pins IDE/Standard ATA Interface used in computer Hard Disks Drive (HDD). Hence DOM can replace regular HDD or other storage device in embedded/computerized systems, which require highly reliable fast storage disk but do not require many Giga Bytes of storage. No need to worry about hard drive crashes due to mechanical breakdowns. DOM has no moving parts! They don

In a sequestered disk, a fragment of the NP has broken loose from the disk and is free in the spinal canal.

SACD is an abbreviation of Super Audio CD by Sony and Philips. DVD density 5+1 channel audio recording. Used mostly for audiophile Jazz and Classics recordings. Has two layers - one for SACD capable player to play one bit DSD recorded audio and other plain CD for any CD player to play PCM.

In sound quality close to DVD audio with multichannel Dolby Digital or DTS recordings. SACD provides more natural non-digital LP like record sound with impressive dynamic range.

Bits are smaller than bytes. 8 bits equal 1 byte. 4 bits equal a nibble.

Block coding is when error-corrected codes are encoded in blocks. These usually have a very wide range of practical applications.

The easiest method is to use a solid drive inside an external enclosure, and plug into the desktop using a USB cable. This means the original internal hard drive is not affected and can still be used.

If the solid drive is to replace the internal hard drive, then the main points are: ensure the power and data plugs pulled off the hard drive will fit the sold drive - probably sata type. Also, the smaller size (2.5) doesn't matter as it can be held in the rack by various means, a special fitting, or simply laid in the rack without fasteners (a desktop is not usually moved as a laptop would be).

If the data is not in the cache already the storage device sends the data requested to a cache, which results in a wait stage, when the data has been copied to the cache it can then be transferred to the requesting device. Caches have faster transfer rates than that of your typical storage devices, thus when the request is sent to the cache for the data it can be transferred a lot faster than if it is transferred from the storage device, the data is then also not deleted immediately so if the data is required again, there is no wait stage and the data can be transferred immediately.

They haven't lost credibility, but they have lost all purpose. They are no longer used because CD's and DVD's can hold a lot more information and are a lot more durable.

It is when a storage device is removed from a computer. Examples of common storage devices that are often removed from computers today are...

- solid state USB devices (aka jump drives or thumb drives)

- solid state storage cards (aka SD cards)

- CD/DVD recordable or rewritable media (aka CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R, DVD+R, DVD+-R, etc.)

- hard disk drives (aka hard drives, HDDs, disk drives)

creating a file

Primary Storage Device are the memory devices Like RAM. These are generally volatile i.e the data stored by them gets destroyed when the computer restarts or is turned off.There are available in the capacity 1GB, 2GB,4GB but there capacity is significantly lower then secondary storage device.They are also faster than Secondary storage devices.

Secondary Storage device retain the data even when the computer is turned off. HDD, FDD,CDs/DVDs/Tape Media, Pen Drive are example of these type.They are available in high capicity i.e. 160GB, 500GB , 1TB etc.

In my experience, the laptops have slower drives in terms of read speed.

On DVD's there are little bumps that a laser reads on the silver side of the DVD

On memory cards a laser reads the 1's and 0's that your divce puts on it.

There is no simple answer to this as the information can be printed on the paper in many different ways, some human readable and some not. And using human readable formats there is no well defined way to say how many bits each character represents. Also you need to consider printed photographs, which have different resolutions and numbers of bits per pixel. It also is an issue whether or not the bits must be able to be read losslessly without error back into a computer.
