Stable-Storage Implementation Write-ahead log scheme requires stable storage. To implement stable storage: Replicate information on more than one nonvolatile storage media with independent failure modes. Update information in a controlled manner to ensure that we can recover the stable data after any failure during data transfer or recovery. Tertiary Storage Devices Low cost is the defining characteristic of tertiary storage. Generally, tertiary storage is built using removable media Common examples of removable media are floppy disks and CD-ROMs; other types are available. Removable Disks
