Storage media refers to the physical medium that holds data; SSD and tape are physical storage media, while the remaining choices are connection interfaces or protocols used to access storage devices.
Common mistakes.
- A. SCSI (Small Computer System Interface) is a set of interface standards and command protocols for connecting computers to peripheral storage devices - it is an interface, not a storage medium.
- D. SATA (Serial Advanced Technology Attachment) is a bus interface standard used to connect storage devices to a host controller - it defines the connection and transfer method, not the storage medium itself.
- E. USB (Universal Serial Bus) is a connection interface standard for attaching peripherals to a host - it is a data transfer interface, not a category of storage media.
