Lesson 7 Selecting a storage device

Curriculum > KS4 > Unit > Lesson

This is the last of three lessons on secondary storage. The previous two lessons have equipped the learners with the knowledge they need to systematically select and justify a device for a given use. This lesson will model that process for the learners, and then lead to them completing the full process on their own. The second half of the lesson explores the limits of physical storage and how cloud storage can fill the gaps. Learners will examine cloud storage and answer GCSE-style questions on the impacts of cloud storage.

Learning objectives

  • Apply the knowledge of storage devices to recommend an appropriate device
