1. Compact disk MIRJAM NILSSON

2. Compact Disc  CDs or Compact Disks are optic readable media. CDs are the replacement of the phonograph disc. • The main material of the CD is plastic. • The shape of the plastic is circular and one side of the circular plastic is coated with the reflecting metal coating, usually aluminum. • Data can be stored much more densely in optic media than in magnetic media, like Hard disk. Optic media have a much longer life span. Millions of bits are burned into this coating. 2

3. Compact Disc • CDs can store many types of data, like audio, video, games, any documents, etc. • The data are scanned by a laser beam with a CD driver to visualize the data. • The only thing that is less in CD is storage capacity is very less compared to HDD or DVD and the read-write speed is also very less. • The storage capacity of a CD is 700 MB only.

4. What is a CD used for in a computer? Compact discs store data to be retrieved or executed at a later date. CDs can store software programs to install onto your computer. They save files for backup or transfer to another computer and hold music to play in a CD player. PITCH DECK 6/15/XX 4

5. How much data does a CD hold? The standard CD can hold 72 minutes of music or 650 MB of data. An 80 minute CD is capable of holding 700 MB of data.. PITCH DECK 6/15/XX 5

13. 1. Cost of CD is cheap. 2. It can be carried out easily. Its portable 3. It uses a laser to burn data into the disk, so that no noise in the data.. 4. In that time, an entire software package can be stored on one CD, so its very reliable for the software industries in the days. 5. In that days CD is only thing which has much storage upto 700 MB than other available storage devices. 6. CD provides random data access. 7. CD is durable for long time. 6/15/XX ADVANTAGES OF COMPACT

14. 1. Easy to scratch on CD. 2. Storage capacity is lower than a hard drive or DVD, nowadays CD is not used at all. 3. Read-write speed is slower. 4. To burn CD we need software, so burning is not much easy as hard disk or pen drive 6/15/XX DISADVANTAGES OF COMPACT

15. What came after a CD? Several years after the CD was first introduced in the 1980s, there were other methods of storing and retrieving data.
