Exercise Nr.1 1.

1.
Data storage means saving all your electronic information like photos, documents and videos. Everything a computer knows is called storage data. A data storage device is an object that records that information in an electromagnetic way. 

There´s three types of storage devices: 

The primary type: Primary storage is the storage that is directly connected to the computer. It´s volatile information, meaning that it can only save your data while the computer is on. Random Access Memory and cache are primary storage devices. 

The secondary type: These storage devices aren´t volatile, so they will keep existing while the computer isn´t running. They´re cheaper than primary storage devices. Secondary storage devices can be internal, external or removable. Examples: hard drives, DVD´s, CD´s.

The tertiary/offline type: Offline storage isn´t used as much as the other two storage types are. They have to be inserted into the computer to edit or access any data saved on them. The data saved in these devices stays in the device even if its disconnected from the computer. Examples: compact disks, floppy disks, USB´s.

DATA STORAGE

You can save your information in many ways. You can write the down on a paper, you can save them on a photo album , on a camera, etc.But today, in this generation  you can also save them on a computer, pen drive ,cd, chip, etc. These last four are called data storage devices. But what is a data storage? A data storage is the electronic way of saving your data. An information ( data) deposit (storage).In the computer, iphone, ipod. Pen drives and CD’s were used to transfer information to other devices, but today , you only need a device connected to internet to access to the cloud. You can take your photos , videos and music everywhere .When you saved some photos in your pen drive, you connect it to the computer and the photos show up. CD’s are more used to save videos and then show them on the tv, but , the cloud is the modernist form of saving data . The cloud allows us to save photos, texts, videos and also  share them with friend. The most used of the CD´s, pen drive, and the cloud is the cloud.

Data storage:

The storage is where you can save the data of an electronic device. Like computers, Tvs, tablets, mobiles phones, calculators, game consoles, etc..

There are also electronics devices that they don’t have storage of any type like a remote control. But also there are electronics devices that they have temporary storage.

With the years the memory was getting down the price. In 1956 1 GB cost 8,2 millions dollars, in 1980 cost 184 thousand dollars, in 1990 cost 5.200 dollars, in 2000 cost 12 dollars and in 2006 were 1,2 dollars.

There are three types of computer storage:

Primary Storage: This is the fastest type of storage and inside is the Cache ( inside the CPU) and the RAM. This are inside of the devices.

CPU:central processing unit 

RAM: Random access memory

Secondary storage:  This is the second fastest type of storage and it is the Hard Disk.

Tertiary Storage: Is the third fastest storage and it included Usb, CD, DVD, etc....

That was the Data Storage information and definition.
