   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_data_storage

   Computer data storage or digital data storage is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media that are used to retain digital data. It is a core function and fundamental component of computers. [1]: 15–16. The central processing unit (CPU) of a computer is what manipulates data by performing computations.

3. Network-attached storage - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network-attached_storage

   Network-attached storage (NAS) is a file-level (as opposed to block-level storage) computer data storage server connected to a computer network providing data access to a heterogeneous group of clients. The term "NAS" can refer to both the technology and systems involved, or a specialized device built for such functionality (as unlike ...

4. File system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_system

   A local file system is a capability of an operating system that services the applications running on the same computer. [1][2] A distributed file system is a protocol that provides file access between networked computers. A file system provides a data storage service that allows applications to share mass storage.

5. Network File System - Wikipedia

   Network File System (NFS) is a distributed file system protocol originally developed by Sun Microsystems (Sun) in 1984, [1] allowing a user on a client computer to access files over a computer network much like local storage is accessed. NFS, like many other protocols, builds on the Open Network Computing Remote Procedure Call (ONC RPC) system.

6. Cloud storage - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud_storage

   Cloud storage is a model of computer data storage in which data, said to be on " the cloud ", is stored remotely in logical pools and is accessible to users over a network, typically the Internet. The physical storage spans multiple servers (sometimes in multiple locations), and the physical environment is typically owned and managed by a cloud ...

[1] It provides a cluster-based storage array based on industry standard hardware, and is scalable to 50 petabytes in a single filesystem using its FreeBSD -derived OneFS file ...

8. Cache (computing) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cache_(computing)

   A cloud storage gateway, also known as an edge filer, is a hybrid cloud storage device that connects a local network to one or more cloud storage services, typically object storage services such as Amazon S3. It provides a cache for frequently accessed data, providing high speed local access to frequently accessed data in the cloud storage service.

9. Volatile memory - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volatile_memory

   Volatile memory, in contrast to non-volatile memory, is computer memory that requires power to maintain the stored information; it retains its contents while powered on but when the power is interrupted, the stored data is quickly lost. Volatile memory has several uses including as primary storage. In addition to usually being faster than forms ...
