Why each option
The best options for a user needing to store a large amount of data beyond local computer capacity are Network Attached Storage (NAS) and an external hard drive.
Network Attached Storage (NAS) provides dedicated, centralized storage accessible over a network, offering high capacity, redundancy, and scalability for large data sets.
An external hard drive offers a large storage capacity that can be easily connected via USB or other interfaces, providing a convenient solution for extending local storage.
An optical drive (like CD/DVD/Blu-ray) stores data on discs, which typically have much smaller capacities compared to hard drives or NAS solutions, making them unsuitable for "large amount of data."
A USB thumb drive (flash drive) usually has a limited storage capacity compared to external hard drives or NAS, making it less ideal for "large amount of data."
Storing data on "another computer" could work, but it's a vague option that doesn't specify a dedicated storage solution like NAS and might involve security or access complexities.
