storage types

storage types

1. magnetic

   • advantage
     • more cost effective than solid state
     • bigger capacity than both optical and solid state
     • better reliability than solid state
   • disadvantage
     • not as fast read write speed as solid state
     • not as durable as solid state or optical
     • worse portibility than both magnetic and optical
   • example

2. optical

   • advantage
     • better portability than magnetic
     • more reliable to not get data loss than magnetic and solid state
   • disadvantage
     • not as durable as solid state
     • less memory than magnetic
   • example

3. solid state

   • advantage
     • better reliable long term storage than magnetic
     • faster data transfer than magnetic
     • better durability than solid state
   • disadvantage
     • has smaller capacity than magbetic
     • has worse recovery of lost data than magnetic
     • it has worse cost effective than magnetic
   • example
