Detailed explanation-1: -Magnetic storage or magnetic recording is the storage of data on a magnetized medium. Magnetic storage uses different patterns of magnetisation in a magnetizable material to store data and is a form of non-volatile memory. The information is accessed using one or more read/write heads.
Detailed explanation-2: -Hard disks, zip disks and floppy disks are common examples of magnetic disks.
Detailed explanation-3: -Magnetic Disks Diskette drives and hard disk drives are the most commonly used storage devices in PCs. Both fall into the magnetic storage category because they record data as magnetic fields.
Detailed explanation-4: -Magnetic storage media and devices store data in the form of tiny magnetised dots. These dots are created, read and erased using magnetic fields created by very tiny electromagnets.
Detailed explanation-5: -Any storage medium that utilizes magnetic patterns to represent information is considered magnetic media. Examples of a magnetic media and magnetic storage are a tape drive, floppy diskette, and hard drive.
