  • Use External Storage Devices Like Pen Drives, Cds, and Dvds
    External Intel® Learn Easy Steps Activity Card Storage Devices Using external storage devices like Pen Drives, CDs, and DVDs loading Videos Since the advent of computers, there has been a need to transfer data between devices and/or store them permanently. You may want to look at a file that you have created or an image that you have taken today one year later. For this it has to be stored somewhere securely. Similarly, you may want to give a document you have created or a digital picture you have taken to someone you know. There are many ways of doing this – online and offline. While online data transfer or storage requires the use of Internet, offline storage can be managed with minimum resources. The only requirement in this case would be a storage device. Earlier data storage devices used to mainly be Floppy drives which had a small storage space. However, with the development of computer technology, we today have pen drives, CD/DVD devices and other removable media to store and transfer data. With these, you store/save/copy files and folders containing data, pictures, videos, audio, etc. from your computer and even transfer them to another computer. They are called secondary storage devices. To access the data stored in these devices, you have to attach them to a computer and access the stored data. Some of the examples of external storage devices are- Pen drives, CDs, and DVDs. Introduction to Pen Drive/CD/DVD A pen drive is a small self-powered drive that connects to a computer directly through a USB port.

Naturally, DVD offers digital picture and sound quality, plus durability and direct-access. As a full-range supplier of digital recording media, a leading partner in the development of DVD formats, and an A-brand manufacturer of consumer electronics, Philips is in a unique position to provide top-quality products. Many other influential consumer electronics, computer and recording media companies[1] also support the DVD+RW and DVD+R formats. The market is ready for recordable DVD Market research[2] indicates that a record button is the feature consumers most want to add to their DVD players. In fact, over a third of the survey group in Europe said they would buy a DVD recorder immediately, and 80 percent said they would buy one within a year.Worldwide, more than half the survey group indicated that they would choose a DVD recorder over a DVD player when the price differential comes down to a factor of two. In addition to DVD+RW discs, which have all the reusable convenience of videocassette tapes, consumers have indicated a need for a lower cost,‘write -once’ DVD+R disc for archiving cherished material.
