                 5    Working in highly secure environments
                      where access to files shares is rigidly
                      controlled.


               Storage Devices

               Storage devices are handy ways to share presentations, digital photos, videos,

               and audio files with your work colleagues and friends or to carry files between
               work, school and home. If the recipient isn't on a network or the file is really big,
               sometimes it's still the best way to go. Examples of storage devices that can be
               used to share information are CDs, DVDs or Floppy Discs, and USB Storage
               Devices

                 3    Taking information with you when you're       Distributing files to many people at once is
                      working away from the office                  very difficult
                 4    Quick file transfers between disconnected     Consolidating feedback from several co-
                      computers                                     workers is not easy
