More about Information and Data Storage

Binary numbers

Binary numbers

Overview

In computer and information technologies, data is required for any operations. Data can consist of any information from basic operation instructions to data stored by users, such as text or video, for example. It can be in a range of formats, although generally in the case of computers, it is in binary form. Some of the data is temporary, used for the duration of a set of operations. It is deleted after these operations are completed. Temporary storage devices such as random access memory (RAM) are used for it. Other data has to be stored on a more long-term basis, on permanent storage devices such as hard disk drives (HDD) or solid-state drives (SSD).

What is Data

Data is information stored as symbols that can be read by a device or by humans. A large portion of data meant to be read by computers is stored in files. Some of the files are executable by a computer and contain computer programs. They are generally distinguished from data, but not always.

RAID

RAID

Data Redundancy

To prevent loss of data, some storage techniques include data redundancy, a practice of duplicating some or all of the data in several storage locations, so that if it is lost or corrupted in one location, it can still be accessed in another. One data redundancy solution uses a redundant array of independent disks (RAID) which stores duplicates of the data or distributes the data on two or more disks working as one logical unit. Sometimes the RAID group is duplicated for extra protection from failure. Duplicated disks can be stored in a different geographical location, to ensure the protection of the data in case of physical destruction of the RAID unit in time of disaster.

Data Storage Formats

Storage Hierarchy

Data is processed in the central processing unit (CPU) of the computer, and the closer it is to the CPU, the faster it can be accessed. This access speed also depends on the type of storage that is in use. The space close to the CPU is limited, and generally, the faster but smaller storage mechanisms are placed closer to the CPU, while the slower but larger ones are fаrther away. For example, a register inside the processor is extremely small, but can be accessed in one CPU cycle, which could be as fast as several billionths of a second. These speeds constantly improve with technological developments in the field.

Memory card

Memory card

Primary Storage

Primary storage consists of internal memory within the CPU, including cache memory and the registers. These are the fastest-accessible memory units. Main memory is also part of the primary storage. The main memory includes random access memory, RAM. It is much slower than the registers, but has greater storage capacity. This storage is accessed by the CPU directly. It is used actively while the computer is in operation. Data that has to be accessed continuously for the current programs to operate is stored there.

Secondary Storage

Secondary storage encompasses online mass storage devices. This means that the devices are inside the computer, such as the hard disk drive. It is used for storing data that does not need to be accessed as often. Secondary storage is more permanent than primary storage. It is also slower.

Offline Storage

Offline storage is often included in the secondary storage classification, and it encompasses removable data storage such as optical, including CDs, DVDs and Blu-ray Discs (BD), flash memory, a variety of tape storage, and even paper storage such as punch cards and tape. This type of storage, contrary to the other ones, requires an operator who would manually insert and remove the storage media. Offline removable data storage is often used for backup purposes or transferring information between individuals.

Tertiary Storage

Tertiary storage or offline bulk storage usually refers to considerably slower storage, often used for archiving. It can rely on a variety of media stored in a library. The data is accessed upon request from the computer: a robotic arm retrieves and mounts the requested data, and then returns it to its original location.

Types of Storage Devices and Media

DVD drive

DVD drive

Optical

Optical media includes all storage media that can be read with the help of light, such as a laser. At the time of writing (spring 2013), the most common optical media includes CDs, DVDs, Blu-ray, and Ultra Density Optical disks. The reading device can have a single drive, allowing for access to only one disk at a time, or multiple ones, such as in an optical jukebox. The latter is an example of a tertiary storage media library with a robotic arm operator. Optical media is either rewritable or can be written only once but read multiple times (Write once read many or WORM format).

Solid-state drives

Solid-state drives

Semiconductor

Semiconductor media is probably the most widely used type. It takes the same time to access any part of memory, therefore it can be randomly accessed, regardless of the order in which the data was written.

Almost all primary media storage solutions as well as flash memory use semiconductors. Solid-state drives (SSDs) based on semiconductor technology are becoming an alternative to hard disk drives (HDDs). They are still considerably more expensive than HDDs at the time of writing (spring 2013), but can be accessed faster, do not break as easily from impact and do not emit noise. Hybrid drives that combine both the HDD and the SSD technology provide another alternative, with better performance than HDDs. SSDs decrease performance over time, compared to HDDs. Their data loss is often total, not segmental, and restoring them is more difficult than restoring the data on HDDs.

Hard disk drive

Hard disk drive

Magnetic

Magnetic storage is achieved by magnetizing a surface in particular patterns, and the data is then read and written by the read/write heads. Computer storage includes hard drives and floppy disks. The latter are now almost completely obsolete. Video and audio can also be stored on magnetic recording tapes. Finally, plastic cards can store some limited information on a magnetic stripe. These include debit and credit cards, access and key cards, such as in a hotel, and identifying cards such as a driver’s license, a gym membership card, or a university student card. Currently, microchips are being added to the magnetic stripe cards.

Loom punched card

Paper

USB flash drive and a punched card

USB flash drive and a punched card

Historically paper media was widely used at the beginning of the computing era. It was used to make information like operation instructions readable by computers and other machines and devices, such as looms. In particular, punched tape and punched cards were used. Punch tape was also used for storing text messages such as telegrams and newspaper articles, as well as used in cash registers. From the late 1950s through to the 1980s they have been replaced by magnetic and other forms of storage. Paper storage is still used today, but in a very limited capacity, for example, to grade tests or to count votes.

Converter of Units of Information and Data Storage

A unit of information is the capacity of a standard data storage device or a communication channel used to measure the capacities of other systems and channels. The most common units are the bit and the byte (or octet). Information capacity is a dimensionless quantity because it refers to a count of binary symbols.

A bit is the basic unit of information in computing and telecommunications; a bit can have the value of either 1 or 0 only. A bit can also be defined as a variable or computed quantity that can have only two possible values. These two values are often denoted by the numerical digits 0 and 1. These two values can also be interpreted as logical values (true/false, yes/no), on/off state or any other two-valued attribute or physical condition such as flow/no flow or high pressure/low pressure.

A byte is a unit of digital information in computing and telecommunications that most commonly consists of eight bits.

Using the Converter of Units of Information and Data Storage Converter

This online unit converter allows quick and accurate conversion between many units of measure, from one system to another. The Unit Conversion page provides a solution for engineers, translators, and for anyone whose activities require working with quantities measured in different units.
