What type of storage device is used to store large amounts of digital data?

  1. RAM

  2. Hard Drive

  3. Network

  4. Microphone

The correct answer is: Hard Drive

A hard drive is the correct choice for storing large amounts of digital data. RAM stands for Random Access Memory and is used to temporarily store data while a computer is running. It is not designed for long-term storage. A network can be used to store and access data, but it is not a specific type of storage device. A microphone is used to record audio, so it is not a storage device at all. The best option for storing large amounts of digital data is a hard drive, as it is specifically designed for this purpose.
