Storage devices are defined as those devices which are used to store the data temporarily or permanently, and can be internal or external to a computer.

A storage device may also be known as a storage medium or storage media.

There are two different types of storage devices:

Primary storage devices: Generally smaller in size, these are designed to hold data temporarily and are internal to the computer. They have the fastest data access speed, and include RAM and cache memory.

Secondary storage devices: These usually have large storage capacity, and they store data permanently. They can be either internal or external to the computer, and they include the hard disk, optical disk drive and USB storage device.
