Operating Instructions or “Op
Codes” are a word or acronym used
in assembly language to represent a
binary machine instruction operation
code. Different processors have
different instruction set and
therefore use a different set of
mnemonics to represent them.

Less susceptible to damage
Storage capacity - maximum amount of data that can be stored on a
storage medium
Speed - measured by access time and data transfer rate

Access time - average time it takes a computer to locate data and read it
• millisecond = one-thousandth of a second

CD-ROM :
Data stamped on when manufactured
Coated with clear plastic, durable
Estimated life exceeds 500 years
Inexpensive to manufacture
Ideal for distribution of large files
CD-RW (compact disc-rewritable) allows you to write on a CD, then
change the data

