Archiving Data
When data is archived, a copy is taken of it and that copy is stored away from the computer maybe on a CD or magnetic tape. The files on the computer are then erased.
This is different from 'backing up' where a copy of the data is made but the original data remains on the computer.
Challenge see if you can find out one extra fact on this topic that we haven't already told you
