  1. 8 CHAPTER SECONDARY STORAGE

  2. Competencies • Distinguish between primary & secondary storage • Discuss the different types of storage media • Describe the traditional floppy disk and the high capacity floppy disks • Describe various types of hard disk devices

  3. Competencies cont. • Describe ways to improve hard-disk operations • Describe the different types of optical disks • Describe other kinds of secondary storage devices

  4. Primary storage Volatile Temporary Secondary storage Nonvolatile Permanent Secondary storage characteristics Media Capacity Storage devices Access speed Storage RAM

  5. Secondary Storage Devices

  6. Traditional Floppy Disk Floppy Disks • Diskettes • Floppies • Portable storage media • Floppy disk drives (FDD)

  7. Traditional Floppy Diskette

  8. Types of Floppies • High capacity • Known as a floppy-disk cartridge • Require special disk drives • Three well known types • Zip disks • HiFD disks • SuperDisks

  9. Hard Disks • Use thicker, metallic platters for storage • Faster than a floppy diskette • Large capacity • Sensitive instruments

  10. Materials that Cause a Head Crash

  11. Internal Hard Disk • Located inside system unit • Known as a fixed disk • Designated as the C drive • Advantages over floppies • Access speed • Capacity

  12. PC Card Hard Disks Hard-Disk Cartridges • Removable hard disks • Used to complement internal hard disk • Capacities of 10 to 20 GB

  13. Hard-Disk Packs • Removable • Massive storage capacity • Common in mainframes • Resembles stack of vinyl records

  14. Hard-Disk Pack

  15. Performance Enhancements • Disk caching • Redundant arrays of inexpensive disks (RAID) • File compression and decompression

  16. Optical Disks • Compact • Permanent storage • Laser beams reflect off pits • Two common types • CD • DVD

  17. Compact Disc • Optical format • From 650 MB to 1 GB capacity • Rotation speeds vary • Types • Read only: CD-ROM • Write once: CD-R • Rewriteable: CD-RW • Picture CDs and Photo CDs

  18. Digital Versatile Disc • Digital Versatile Disk or Digital Video Disk (DVD) • Similar to CDs, but can store more data • Types • Read only • Write once • Rewritable

  19. DataPlay • Optical disk • Write once format • Quarter size • 500 MB capacity • Holds 5 hours of CD-quality sound • Use for storing and playing music files

  20. Other Types of Secondary Storage • Solid-state storage • Internet hard drives • Magnetic tape

  21. Solid-State Storage • Flash memory cards • Widely used in notebook computers • Used to record MP3 music files • Key chain hard drives • Key chain flash memory devices • Connects to a USB port

  22. Internet Hard Drives

  23. Magnetic Tape • External storage • Provides sequential access • Information stored in sequence • Slower than disks which provide direct access • Magnetic tape streamers or tape cartridges used by both mainframes and microcomputers

  24. A Look to the FutureBlu-Ray Technology • New standard in storage • Blu-Ray • New disks use blue laser light instead of the red laser light used in traditional CD players • Disks may ultimately hold • Over 30GB on one-sided disks • Over 50GB on two-sided disks
