Correct Answer: random access


Solution : The correct answer is random access .

In computer storage, direct access, also known as random access, refers to the capability of retrieving data from a storage device by directly accessing its physical location rather than having to search through locations sequentially. This means that a computer can swiftly locate and retrieve specific data points without the need for a linear search.
