SIZ Education||DEFINITION OF HARDISK: and its Functions

source

A hard drive is a piece of hardware that functions to store data on a computer, but this hard drive has an important role on every computer

In the following, I will describe some of the functions of the hard drive, which you need to know, namely:

TO SAVE FILES IN VARIOUS FORMAT
In general, all users will save files of various formats directly on the hard drive on the computer

AS A DATA STORAGE SPACE
Because this is an important element that must exist in a computer system, generally all databases that will be stored will be accessible

APPLICATION DATA STORAGE AND SOFTWARE
Computer users often add or install supporting software and applications. It also works for data storage of the app

You need to pay attention, a hard drive must have a large enough capacity, this will make it easier to accommodate very heavy files

MEANS OF BACK UP
Some people enable HD for media to help save files that are considered important. This means that you can duplicate important documents and data, and can store them in many places including HD.

This is important to prevent the loss of important files, especially for those who work on computers.

SAVE DATA FROM SYSTEM OPERATION
An operating system like Windows or any other really needs a large enough space to put files with data after they are installed. Without a hard drive, the OS will not run normally on the computer.

That's all friends about the function of a hard drive on a computer, hopefully it's useful
