What is Data Storage -
Data storage is the process of using technology to save and retrieve digital information
on devices like computers, hard drives, and other media. This information can be
anything from personal photos and videos to business data, documents, and more.
❖ 1st of all we all know RAM. So, this is called as the primary memory.
❖ Then the secondary memory come. RANDOM ACESS MEMORY. Then ROM.
READ ONLY MEMORY.
❖ Then the tertiary storage comes. Basically, that is the pen drives, CD, DVD,
SSD and more.
Elevation of Data Storage –
Punch Card → Magnetic tape drive → Hard Drive by IBM → Cassette Tape → Floppy
Disk → Compact Disk (CD) → Solid State Drive (SSD) → Zip Drive → DVD → Storage
Space Card (SD Card) → USB Flash Drive → Bluray Disk → Cloud Storage.
PUNCH CARD –
The earliest known storage device was the punch card, which was invented
by Joseph Marie Jacquard in 1801. The punch card was used to control
weaving machines and was capable of storing up to 80 characters of data or 1.2
kb data.
MANGATIC TAPE DRIVE –
In 1928 Fritz Pflueger developed, and in 1929 patented a magnetic recording
tape using oxide bonded to a strip of paper or film. A tape drive is a device that stores
computer data on magnetic tape, especially for backup and archiving purposes. It can
replace 1920 punch cards. It can hold up to 225 kb of data.
COMPACT DISK –
Compact disc (CD), a moulded plastic disc containing digital data that is scanned by
a laser beam for the reproduction of recorded sound and other information. It can store
up to 700 mb of data
SOLID STSTE DRIVE –
Solid-state drives (SSDs) are the most common storage drives today. SSDs are
smaller and faster than hard disk drives (HDDs). SSDs are noiseless and allow PCs
to be thinner and more lightweight. Hard disk drives (HDDs) are more common in older
devices. It can store up to 20 mb then, but in now days it can store up to 100 Tb of
data.
ZIP DRIVE –
The Zip drive is a removable floppy disk storage system that was announced by
Iomega in 1994 and began shipping in March 1995. Considered medium-to-high-
capacity at the time of its release, Zip disks were originally launched with capacities of
100 MB, then 250 MB, and finally 750 MB.
DVD –
The medium can store any kind of digital data and has been widely used to store video
programs (watched using DVD players), software and other computer files. DVDs offer
significantly higher storage capacity than compact discs (CD) while having the same
dimensions. It can store up to 4.5 gb of data.
BLURAY DISK –
A Blu-ray drive is an optical disc drive that reads and writes Blu-ray discs, a type of
high-capacity optical disc used to store and play back high-definition video and other
digital content. Blu-ray discs are typically used in high-end computers and video game
consoles with high-definition display capabilities.
CLOUD STORAGE –
Cloud storage is a service that allows users to store data on servers located off-site,
instead of on their own devices. A third-party provider manages and secures the data,
and users can access it over the internet. According to research till now it stores 1zb
of data.
As it is internet based so it has no picture.
A logic gate is a device that acts as a building block for digital circuits. They perform
basic logical functions that are fundamental to digital circuits. Most electronic devices
we use today will have some form of logic gates in them.
So, there are three universal logic gates. They are AND Gate, NOT Gate and OR Gate.
These are very basic and simple gates.
AND Gate –
The AND gate is named so because, if 0 is false and 1 is true, the gate acts in the
same way as the logical "and" operator. The following illustration and table show the
circuit symbol and logic combinations for an AND gate. (In the symbol, the input
terminals are on the left, and the output terminal is on the right.) The output is "true"
when both inputs are "true." Otherwise, the output is "false." In other words, the output
is 1 only when both inputs are 1.
Truth Table
OR Gate –
The OR gate gets its name from behaving like the logical inclusive "or." The output is
true if one or both of the inputs are true. If both inputs are false, then the output is
false. In other words, for the output to be 1, at least one input must be 1.
Truth Table
NOT Gate –
A logical inverter, sometimes called a NOT gate to differentiate it from other types of
electronic inverter devices, has only one input. A NOT gate reverses the logic state. If
the input is 1, then the output is 0. If the input is 0, then the output is 1
Truth Table
Apart from these three gates, there are some other gates, they are –
NAND Gate –
The NAND (Negated AND) gate operates as an AND gate followed by a NOT gate. It
acts in the manner of the logical operation "and" followed by negation. The output is
false if both inputs are true. Otherwise, the output is true. Another way to visualize it is
that a NAND gate inverts the output of an AND gate. The NAND gate symbol is an
AND gate with the circle of a NOT gate at the output.
Truth Table
NOR Gate –
The NOR (NOT OR) gate is a combination OR gate followed by an inverter. Its output
is true if both inputs are false. Otherwise, the output is false.
XOR Gate –
The XOR (exclusive-OR) gate acts in the same way as the logical "either/or." The
output is true if either, but not both, of the inputs are true. The output is false if both
inputs are "false" or if both inputs are true. Similarly, the output is 1 if the inputs are
different but 0 if the inputs are the same.
Truth Table
XNOR Gate –
The XNOR (exclusive-NOR) gate is a combination of an XOR gate followed by an
inverter. Its output is true if the inputs are the same and false if the inputs are different.
Truth Table
CONCLUSION
In this pdf file we learnt about the logic gates and their usage in making
important mechanical devices like transistor, diode, computer processors
etc...
we also learnt about data storage devices and their evolution. It also
helped me to learn about the topics deeply. Lastly, I would like to thank
our professor to give us this assignment.
