C Correct answer
Explanation

Auxiliary memory refers to secondary storage devices like hard disks, tapes, and optical drives that provide additional storage beyond main memory (RAM). It's called 'auxiliary' because it supports the primary memory. It is not a memory slot, extended memory (which refers to RAM expansion), or cache memory (which is high-speed primary memory).
