| | Computer storage - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Content-addressable storage can be implemented using software (computer program) or hardware (computer device), with hardware being faster but more expensive option. | | | Secondary storage requires the computer to use its input/output channels to access the information, and is used for long-term storage of persistent information. | | | Tertiary storage is used in the realms of enterprise storage and scientific computing, and is something a typical computer user never sees firsthand. |

| | Secondary Storage |
| | Secondary storage is also called auxiliary storage and is used to store data and programs when they are not being processed. | | | Secondary storage is more permanent than main memory, as data and programs are retained when the power is turned off. | | | It is important to know the difference between secondary storage and a computer's main memory. |

| | Secondary Storage |
| | Computer storage is the holding of data in an electromagnetic form for access by a computer processor. | | | Primary storage is much faster to access than secondary storage because of the proximity of the storage to the processor or because of the nature of the storage devices. | | | Secondary storage is data on hard disks, tapes, and other external devices such as diskettes, CD-ROMs and Zip drives. |

| | Secondary storage, sometimes called auxiliary storage, is all data storage that is not currently in a computer's primary storage or memory. | | | In a personal computer, secondary storage typically consists of storage on the hard disk and on any removable media, if present, such as a CD or DVD. |

| | TechOnLine - Storage Area Network Overview |
| | Primary storage may be assigned to a computer for a long time because the data and applications on the storage become integral parts of the computer. | | | Secondary storage, like tape drives, may be assigned to a computer for much shorter periods of time, often only as long as is necessary to back up the computer's data files. | | | Storage sharing—or storage consolidation—enables multiple computers across a corporate network to access a common set of storage devices such as disk arrays, tapes, optical drives and autoloaders. |

| | Storage Networking World Online - Evaluating Opportunities: Moving data between storage tiers |
| | A new tier in the storage hierarchy has firmly taken root: "Secondary storage." Secondary storage is defined as disk storage that is less expensive and lower performing than primary disk storage. | | | The better solution is to make copies of data on the secondary storage from primary storage in the normal disk format, and allow recovery through appropriate means, including mounting file systems for individual file recovery or through application recovery routines. | | | Using secondary storage devices has created another tier in the storage hierarchy and has underscored the need for automated movement of data. |

| | There are two motivations for adding secondary storage to an environment: improving data protection and making more cost-effective use of installed storage systems. | | | Depending on a company's business environment and the currently installed equipment, secondary storage may just as easily be an older network-attached storage (NAS) box or a SAN array, basically any storage device that performs at a lower level than what's required for critical applications. | | | Large storage vendors, such as Hitachi Data Systems (HDS) and Sun Microsystems Inc., are taking steps to help improve the reliability of SATA disks, or at least to take some of the unpredictability out of their failure. |

| | The best part of secondary storage devices is that they have the ability to record information so that the user can look at it again both on the same computer as well as others. | | | First, let me explain what secondary storage is. Secondary storage devices are used for long-term reservoirs for data, and include such magnetic tape, magnetic disks, and optical disks, and their respective drives. | | | With technology this method of secondary storage has changed dramatically, so that now a great deal of it is digitized, and the tape cartridges have become much smaller, but still they have been phased out greatly. |

| | Instead, secondary (auxiliary) storage is needed to permanently save data and programs until they are needed, at which time the computer will load them from secondary storage into primary memory. | | | The traditional memory hierarchy, which ranks storage methods on their storage capacity, access time, and storage cost, is based on the speed differences between the CPU and other parts of the computer. | | | The general term for the secondary storage containers of data and programs is "files"; however, the term is so general that it has many, often confusing, uses. |
