materials on the right have been updated >>
a solid state drive. while ssds tend to be more expensive than traditional hard drives, this may be offset by their speed and reliability.
an optical drive that works by rotating a disk. the type of disk you put into your optical drive is the optical media.
a cd which stores data on a plastic disk with a reflective coating.

Explanation:

The question asks about optical storage, so we need to select the option that directly describes the components/function of optical storage. The first option refers to solid state drives (a different storage type), while the second explains the optical drive and media, and the third gives a specific example of optical media. The prompt starts with "Let's start with optical storage. For this you use..." which calls for the core component: the optical drive and its associated media, as it defines the optical storage system.

Answer:

an optical drive that works by rotating a disk. The type of disk you put into your optical drive is the optical media.
