Explanation

A hard disk drive stores data magnetically, so it pairs with the magnetic type.

USB flash memory has no moving parts and pairs with the solid state type.

A Blu-ray disc is read by a laser and pairs with the optical type.

Magnetic storage uses spinning platters and a moving read write head.

Solid state storage keeps data in flash memory chips.

Optical discs record data as pits read by a laser beam.
