It is commonly used in computers to store the operating system, software applications, and user files. Floppy disks, CD-ROMs, and ROM are types of secondary storage devices, which are used for long-term storage but are not considered primary storage.

In contrast, the other options listed (Floppy disk, ZIP disk, DVD, and Compact Disk) are all storage devices that can be used to store and retrieve data.
