Answer:

Explanation:

Punch card is the oldest computer storage; followed by tape and then floppy disk. Hard drive goes back as far as floppy but is still in use today. CD/DVD/BR discs are all later storage but are also used for storing music and videos. USB flash, SD card, SSD and cloud storage are the common technologies used today for data storage.

Answer:

Explanation:

the other answer talks about when the different storages were used; here are their capacity comparison; in increasing order:

punch card - one hole represents 1 bit

tape - slightly more w/ 0/1 represented by sound

floppy disk - more as 0/1 represented by magnetics

hard drive - also magnetics but capacity ranges from okay (in MB) at the beginning to enormous (in TB) currently

CD - beginning to be okay but still under 1 GB

DVD and BR - better 5-28GB

USB/SD/SSD - good; all in 10s to 100s of GB

cloud storage - UNLIMITED!
