Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

CDs are the best choice as they can store a sufficient amount of MP3 music and photo files and can be read and written using a CD-RW drive, which James's computer has. Floppy disks are outdated and have limited storage capacity, while DVDs cannot be used with James's computer as it lacks a DVD-R drive. Smart cards may be suitable for some purposes, but they are not commonly used for storage of MP3 music and photo files.
