All the above statements are true.
Secondary storage also called long term storage is a non volatile storage. Without secondary storage, all the programs and data would be lost the moment the computer is switched off. Examples of secondary storage are - hard disk drive, cd, dvd, floppy disc.
Primary storage is the main storage of a computer system, it is also called RAM (Random Access Memory). This memory is volatile in nature, i.e., once the computer is turned off all the data is lost from this type of memory. Primary storage is used when it the data is being processed. Primary memory includes cache memory.
