When the information surrounding the person became very much, and he was unable to remember it, writing arose. Over time, it improved and turned into an integral part of a person’s daily life. However, a large number of paper media makes it difficult to quickly find the necessary information, and with the advent of digital information and means for its conversion and storage, it became possible to look at this problem in a different way. Digital information has several advantages associated with immunity to transmission interference and longer shelf life.
Information storage is one of the main information processes with which the concept of information storage device or storage device is inextricably linked. Different devices may use different methods of storing information. The totality of such devices is called memory. More often the concept of “information storage” is associated with computer technology.Computer memory is internal and external. Internal memory includes devices that ensure the operability of the computing system (computer) itself. For example, random access memory, cache memory. Most of the storage devices known to the average user, such as a hard drive, a USB flash drive, a memory card, or a CD, are related to external memory.
Until recently, this was the only thing the computer industry could offer us. Now anyone has the opportunity to store their personal information directly on the Internet, and without even spending money on it.
On the one hand, this is very convenient, since you can access and view the necessary information from any device with an Internet connection . Thus, cases are excluded when a flash drive with information is forgotten at home, just on the day when it was very necessary at work., , . , . , , «» , . .

This is the use of "cloud" Internet services, in which case user information is stored on distributed servers on the Internet, and access to it is carried out using a login and password. Such technology has approximately equal allies and opponents. Some do not trust their personal files at all on the global network, while others, on the contrary, see this as the future.In the modern world, especially in large cities, where access to the global network is ubiquitous, such storage of information looks preferable. No need to buy, maintain and tremble over the safety of photos or video archives.
But will it just happen if the Internet connection suddenly breaks and the user cannot get access to his information at the right time?
