Correct option is A
The correct answer is (a) Floppy Drive
Explanation:
• A floppy drive is a hardware device used to read and write data on floppy disks.
• It is a physical storage device, not a cloud-based service.
• Cloud storage services store data on remote servers accessible via the internet.
• Floppy drives are now obsolete due to very limited storage capacity (usually 1.44 MB).
Information Booster:
• Cloud storage allows users to access files anytime, anywhere through the internet.
• Examples: Google Drive, Microsoft OneDrive, Apple iCloud, Dropbox.
• Cloud services provide synchronization across devices.
• Data stored in the cloud is managed by service providers using large data centers.
• Offers scalability, reliability, and data backup options.
Additional Knowledge:
