To process information, computers need to be able to store it. Otherwise, information would come and
go before anything could be done with it. They store the information you give them, instructions from
the software you're using, plus the instructions they need to operate. There are three types of storage.
What are the two (2) types of active storage that a computer uses to process information? What is the
third type of storage that is inactive?

Active Storage (used to process information)

REASON

GUIDELINE

Its important to protect the computer from being

damaged by your bodys static electric charges.
It also prevents you from shock.
Even when a computer power supply and
monitor are off, they can hold an electrical
charge.
If you start fixing a problem but you run into
trouble, you have to go back to the original
settings.
You want to be able to record the way you fixed
the problem (maybe you will fix a similar problem
in the future) and you dont want to repeat steps.
Some PCs run a small current through the
motherboard even when the PC is off. If a circuit
in the computer is live, just one drop of liquid can
destroy sensitive electronics.
Liquids or crumbs can damage computer
components, and mess can make you less
careful with computer parts.
You need to be sure that you can put the
computer back together.
Too much force could damage the motherboard,
which could ruin the computer. Also, you might
be putting something in the wrong place!
Often, you cant get a file back that you erased.
You could loosen or damage connections.
