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

1 Works well when co-worker are disconnected Newer computers might not have a floppy
from the Internet or don't have access to e-mail disc drive
2 Sharing larger programs and files, as well as Floppy discs have file size limitations
collections of files (such as pictures and songs)
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
5 Getting quick feedback or comments on your files
