    Storage devices are hardware designed to write and read information. There are two main types: primary storage like RAM that is smaller and holds data temporarily, and secondary storage like hard disks that are larger and store data permanently, either internally or externally to the computer. Storage media are what the storage devices write and read data to, such as the disks in optical disk drives or USB storage devices.
