In computer terminology, storage is best described as:

• A. Where programs/data are kept permanently, non-volatile, ROM, secondary storage
• B. A temporary workspace
• C. The Internet connection
• D. The keyboard memory

Answer: (A)

In computer terms, storage refers to the non-volatile memory that keeps programs and data even when the power is off. It’s where things are kept for the long term, using devices like hard drives, SSDs, and also ROM for firmware. This is different from memory (RAM), which is a fast, temporary workspace that loses its contents when power is removed. The Internet connection and a term like keyboard memory aren’t described as storage, since they don’t hold data persistently in the way storage does.
