解説
問 84
Incorrectア
This is an appropriate statement, so it is not the answer in this question, which asks you to pick the one that is NOT appropriate. As long as there is an Internet connection, online storage lets you access the same data not only from a PC but also from multiple devices such as smartphones and tablets, and it can be used regardless of location or device.
Incorrectイ
This is an appropriate statement, so it is not the answer. Many online storage services offer a free plan that limits capacity and functions to a certain range, letting you try it at no cost or use it on a small scale. A common pricing model is that higher capacity and functions require payment.
Incorrectウ
This is an appropriate statement, so it is not the answer. Many online storage services have a file sharing function, and there are services in which multiple registered users can share the same file and view and edit it together. They are used for information sharing and collaborative work within a team.
- エ
正解 The correct answer is エ. Online storage is a service that uses storage space on the provider’s servers over the Internet, and its capacity is determined by the equipment the provider has prepared and the plan you subscribe to. No matter how much you add to the auxiliary storage device built into the user’s PC or tablet (local storage), that only increases the capacity of the device at hand and has nothing to do with the provider’s server capacity. Therefore the statement in エ that adding local auxiliary storage automatically increases the online storage capacity is incorrect, making it the correct choice for this question, which asks for the statement that is NOT appropriate.
ここがポイント
- Online storage: a service that uses storage space on the provider’s servers over the Internet. It can be accessed from multiple devices and allows flexible use, such as file sharing and the provision of free plans.
- The key to telling the answer apart is that capacity is determined by the provider’s server equipment and the subscribed plan, and is unrelated to expanding the user’s local auxiliary storage device.
