Detailed explanation-1: -Data durability refers to the ability of data to remain stored and accessible over a period of time, even in the face of various types of failures or disasters. Data availability, on the other hand, refers to the ability of users to access and use the data when needed.
Detailed explanation-2: -Hard disk drives are often used in active archives because hard disk drive arrays can be continually connected to the storage network, allowing relatively rapid access to content.
Detailed explanation-3: -SSDs don’t use conventional spinning “platters” to store data, so there are fewer moving parts. Under optimal conditions, an SSD can be used for ten years or more without any hardware issues. This makes SSD ideal for long term data storage.
Detailed explanation-4: -Rotating optical storage devices, such as CD and DVD drives, have even longer access times. Other examples of secondary storage technologies include USB flash drives, floppy disks, magnetic tape, paper tape, punched cards, and RAM disks.
