A single cd-rom can store up to 1gb although the most common size is 650mb. A cd-rom has the equivalent memory as 700 floppy disks.

  8. HDD • A hdd is short for hard disk drive, a hdd has the technology to store a large mass of data on it, the data is stored there even after the power is no longer on.

  10. vector graphic software vector graphic are a higher quality image than bitmap, they appear better quality on monitors and printers. Vectors also take up less memory than a bitmap. Vector graphics is the use of geometrical primitives such as points, lines, curves, and shapes or polygon(s).
