A+ Class 2/16/10

Today we started to talk about storage devices. Our discussion started off with the HDD which is the Hard Disk Drive or hard drive for short. The HDD is used for your permanent storage. This storage is convenient in the matter that you don’t have to put in a USB memory stick or CD RW to save your work, all you have to do is click save and you are good to go. There are three critical components to a hard drive:
1) the controller, this controls the hard drive
2) the hard disk, this is the physical storage medium
3) the host adapter, this is the translator
