CD ROM
A CDROM is the same as a normal audio CD except it can store data as well as sounds. A CDROM player can be attached to your computer to read information from the CDROM into the computer's memory in the same way that a domestic CD player reads information from the CD into your hifi. The advantage of distributing information on CDROM rather than other media is that each one can hold up to 680Mb of dataÑequivalent to some 485 highdensity 3.5in floppy disks. The disadvantage however is that you can only write once on CDROMs yet this makes them ideal for archiving.
