Why each option

This question asks to identify two storage technologies designed to prevent modification of data once it has been written.

AFlash

Flash memory can be rewritten multiple times, so it does not guarantee data immutability.

BDLT4 tapes

DLT4 tapes are magnetic tapes that allow data to be written, erased, and rewritten, thus not guaranteeing immutability.

CCD-RCorrect

CD-R (Compact Disc-Recordable) media is a write-once, read-many optical disc format, meaning that once data is written to it, it cannot be erased or modified.

DSDLT tapes

SDLT tapes are magnetic tapes that allow data to be written, erased, and rewritten, thus not guaranteeing immutability.

EWORMCorrect

WORM (Write Once Read Many) is a type of data storage that ensures data, once written, cannot be altered or deleted, making it ideal for compliance and archival purposes.
