- Cache memory, HDDs, RAM, SSDs, and others are all forms of digital memory. Computers provide these things. Is it preferable for customers to have one memory standard, like SSD sizes, or many? Why do several standards matter? Are many standards beneficial? Would a single standard simplify and save costs for consumers?arrow_forwardHDDs, RAM, SSDs, and cache memory are all types of digital memory. These are in computers. Is there an advantage to having many standards, or would it be better for consumers if there was only one memory standard, like SSD sizes? Is it beneficial to have several standards? Would consumers benefit from one standard?arrow_forwardStorage Area Network (SAN) is a mass storage network that links various types of remote storage devices. The textbook says "In a SAN system, the user’s computer provides the file system for storing data, but the SAN provides the disk space for data." What does this mean? Describe in details. You may reference external materials with citations to answer this question.arrow_forward
- Cache memory, hard disk drives (HDD), random access memory (RAM), solid state drives (SSD), and other forms of digital memory may all be employed. These items can be obtained by using computers to do so. Is there any advantage to having a wide variety of standards, or would it be better for customers if there was only one memory standard, such as the many sizes of SSDs? What, if any, advantages does it have to have numerous standards? Is there any good that may come from having so many distinct benchmarks? If there was just one standard that had to be met, would that make things easier and cheaper for consumers?arrow_forwardSecondary storage in primary storage systems often consists of either magnetic media or solid-state media; discuss the similarities and differences between these two types of media.arrow_forward
