Secondary Storage Devices
Two major types of secondary storage device
1. Serial Devices
Magnetic tapes (very fast sequential access)
2.Direct Access Storage Devices (DASDs)
Magnetic Discs
Hard disks (high capacity, low cost, fast)
Floppy disks (low capacity, lower cost, slow)
Optical Disks
CD-ROM = (Compact disc, read-only memory

Magnetic Tape
Plastic ribbon 1/2 inch or 村 inch wide
50 to 2400 feet long
Coated with magnetic material such as iron oxide
or chromium dioxide.
Data stored in form of tiny magnetized(1) or non
magnetized spots(0)
Can be erased and reused in definitely
Information can be read many times without
affecting data
17. Magnetic Tape
What is magnetic tape?
Thin layer of material capable of storing a magnetic
signal
Usually contains Iron Oxide
Protected by backing
layer called the
Substrate
18. Examples of Magnetic Media
