TAPE!
TAPE!
The most common type of storage that does not use direct access is tape storage. Tape uses sequential access, that requires to start from the beginning of the tape and go through the tape until you find the section you need. Direct access includes a directory that will let you go directly to the data you need.

A magnetic tape is a secondary storage media used to access data in a sequential way
An indexed sequential file is a type of file organization where data records are stored sequentially in the order of key values. An index is maintained to help locate records quickly. This combination of sequential storage and indexing allows for efficient access to data in both sequential and random access patterns.
Indexed-sequential file organization allows for efficient storage and retrieval of records by combining the benefits of sequential access (fast for batch processing) and direct access (quick for individual record retrieval). It provides faster access to records compared to purely sequential files while maintaining sequential organization for improved batch processing performance. The index allows for quick access to specific records without needing to search through the entire file.
