Statement I: Solid state recorders replaced magnetic tape machines.

Statement II: Solid state memory survives impact better and needs no transport mechanism.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer.

  • A.Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct
  • B.Both Statement I and Statement II are correct
  • C.Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect
  • D.Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect

Answer: B

Correct answer: Both Statement I and Statement II are correct

Both are true and the second gives the reasons. Solid-state memory has no moving parts, so there is no transport mechanism to jam, no tape to stretch or snap, and no head to misalign.

It survives impact and fire far better, and it is easier to protect because the whole memory sits in one small armoured module rather than on a length of tape. Capacity ceased to be a constraint at the same time, which is why parameter lists grew so markedly once the change was made.
