DVD by far. A DVD can store 4.7 gigabytes of data. A floppy disk can store 1.44 megabytes of data. 1000 megabytes = 1 gigabyte.
Compact disk do
A cD holds 600 times more than a floppy disc.
As little as possible. Floppy disks are prone to corruption and should be accessed as little as possible. It would be generally advised that no data should be stored on a floppy disk, and that any data you have on floppy disk should be removed and backed up on a more reliable format such as flash memory.
The floppy disk is obsolete. The CD has a much larger data capacity and is also more reliable, and the memory stick has an even larger data capacity than the CD.
Although they're not used any more - that would be a floppy-disc
If you put it on a floppy disk. It's a storage device nothing more. By the way flashdrives are smaller and store a lot more data.
A floppy disk is an "old fashioned" way of storing data from your computer. It normally holds only 1.44mb These are not normally put on new computers, as CD/DVD have the ability to store more data and can be either writable or re-writable.
Before Hard disks came to desktop computers were things called floppy disks. While they worked they could hold as little as 80K of memory, when they no longer worked they could be used as hand held fans. more recent versions of floppies did store 1.4 meg
hard disks are generally contains within the computer and contain FAR more memory than a floppy disk does. floppy disks generally contain 1.44 mb where as hard drives are constantly developing and are currently about 1TB MAX. floppy disks are external in the same way as CD's
Floppy disks are rarely used today, mainly due to the fact that they are obsolete. Flash drives, hard disk drives, and memory cards all take the role of floppy disks in a more simple fashion.
A USB flash drive is a data storage device that includes flash memory with an integrated Universal Serial Bus interface. As of September 2011, drives of up to 256 gigabytes (GB) are available, while the floppy disk is around 8MB.
Mainly lack of capacity. A floppy disk is usually 1.44 MB. Modern flash drives, hard drives, etc. are in the gigabytes and terabytes ! You can still use a floppy drive (I have a USB external floppy drive), but it will become more difficult to get new floppy disks as manufacturers abandon a rather antiquated media.
