A school needs to give every pupil a copy of a large software installer to take home. Which storage medium is most appropriate?

Q: How do I try a free AQA Computer Science question?

Just tap any of the four options on this page — no signup, no card, nothing to install. You'll see the correct answer and a full mark-scheme-style explanation within a second. Each visit shows a fresh randomly-picked question from the live AQA GCSE Computer Science bank, so you can keep refreshing to try different ones before deciding whether to create a free account for daily access.

Q: Is Kramizo really free for AQA Computer Science students?

Yes — completely free. Every student gets 45 questions a day on the free plan, across any board and any subject, with no card required and no trial countdown. Kramizo's optional Pro plan removes the daily cap and adds analytics, but the free plan is genuinely free forever. We make money from the small percentage of students who choose to upgrade — not from selling data or ads.

Q: Are the Computer Science questions aligned to the AQA GCSE syllabus?

Every question is written against the published AQA GCSE Computer Science syllabus and reviewed for accuracy before being added to the bank. We match the command words (state, describe, explain, evaluate), mark allocations, and difficulty tier you'll see on real AQA past papers. Explanations are written in the style of official examiner mark schemes so students learn exactly what marks are being awarded for.

Question

A school needs to give every pupil a copy of a large software installer to take home. Which storage medium is most appropriate?

Accepted Answer

Optical discs, because they are cheap to produce in quantity — Award 1 mark. The requirement is many cheap, portable, read-only copies, which is exactly what optical media were designed for. Internal hard disks are not portable in this sense, and cache and RAM are volatile main memory rather than storage that could be handed out.

Answer

Cache memory, because it is the fastest available

Answer

Internal magnetic hard disks, because they hold the most data

Answer

Optical discs, because they are cheap to produce in quantity

Answer

RAM modules, because they can be read very quickly
