C Correct answer
Explanation

The hard drive provides permanent (non-volatile) storage for files. When you save a file, it's written to the hard disk's magnetic surface and persists even after power is turned off. RAM is temporary storage that loses data when power is cut, the CPU processes data, and the monitor only displays it.
