Verified Answer
A. Primary
B. Secondary
C. Device
D. Direct memory
E. None of these
Explanation:
The file system, which organizes and manages files and data on a storage device, resides permanently on secondary storage (e.g., hard drives, SSDs). Primary storage (RAM) is volatile and temporary, losing its contents when power is off. Options (c) device and (d) direct memory are not specific enough to describe permanent storage. Thus, (b) is correct.
