What are the computer's main storage devices, and how can i evaluate whether they match my needs?
- Typical computer system storage devices may include a hard drive, and SSD drive, a flash drive, and a CD and DD drives. When you turn off your computer the data stored in these devices remains, this is known as nonvolatile storage. One of the largest storage capacity and economical device is the Hard Drive. The fastest access time device is the newer SSD drive. To determine the storage capacity your system needs, calculate the amount of storage your software needs to reside on your computer. To add more storage or to provide more functionality for your system, you can install additional; drives, either internally or externally.

It is great on how far we have come from 1985 to now 2012. Computers and there operating systems have come such a long way in the past 27 years. The first Windows 1.01 Version in 1985 ran on the first operating system, MS DOS; to now Windows 7. Windows 7 is the latest version of the Windows operating systems but is not the last, just this year they came out with Windows 8, theres a huge change in graphics since 1985, the graphics have become so much more real looking (three dimensional). Today's Windows OS has a lot more user friendly features; like drop down boxes,tells the computer what to do instead of using codes to get a response. Another technological advancement in Windows from MS DOS is now you can multitask on your computer. Instead of having to do one thing at a time, you can have several windows, programs, and Web pages open to help you accomplish tasks faster and more efficiently. The newer programs allow a user to individualize their computers. Newwer programs can add any application they need to complete the tasks that needs to get done. Every time a new version comes out it gets better and more user friendly; from MS DOS to Windows 98 to now Windows 7, we have come along way since 1985 and I am glad we did. To deal with the graphics back then must have been a nightmare. The advancement in todays technology with computers, cellphone, ipads, nooks, and kindles, society has become a more efficient place for people to live. Us has humans with the constant upgrades have become more techologically smarter and better at multitasking.
