解説
問 55
Incorrectア
A cookie is a small piece of data that a website temporarily stores on the user's PC through the browser, used to remember things like login state and browsing history. It is not a file storage area on the internet where you deposit files, so it is wrong.
Incorrectイ
RAID is a mechanism (technology) that bundles multiple hard disks so they work like a single disk, improving speed and adding redundancy against failures. It is a reliability measure aimed at local storage devices, not a term for a file storage area on the internet, so it is wrong.
- ウ
正解 Online storage is a service that lets you freely read from and write to a file storage area provided on the internet via a network. Instead of a handheld storage medium such as USB memory, you access it from a browser or a dedicated app to deposit or retrieve files, and its key feature is that files can be shared and synced across multiple devices. It exactly matches the question's description of a file storage area on the internet that can be freely read from and written to via the internet, so choice ウ is correct.
Incorrectエ
A crawler is a program that search engines and the like use to automatically visit web pages and collect information. It is not a place that stores data but software that performs the collection, so it is wrong.
ここがポイント
- Online storage = a service that stores files on the internet and lets you read, write, and share them over a network (an alternative to USB memory and the like).
- Grasp the distinction that cookie (state data on the browser side), RAID (a disk redundancy technology), and crawler (a web-crawling program) are none of them a storage area.
