Question

Which of the following statements regarding the memory heirarchy is FALSE?

Many secondary memory devices still utilize mechanical components which make for slower access times.

Those levels of memory on the heirarchy that are lower have a larger capacity but slower access times.

Those levels of memory on the heirarchy that are closer to the processor tend to have a smaller capacity but can be accessed quickly.

None of the above.

None of the above.

Statement :

Many secondary memory devices still utilize mechanical components which make for slower access times.

The above statement is false.

Option 1 is correct choice.

Explanation :

Initial secondary tape storage devices of IBM uses the mechanical devices.

A magnetic tape is a secondary device which is designed by using mechanical components.

These storage devices gives slower access time.

This technique is not used at present because of slower access time.
