The storage in computers has to do with the place where data is kept. It's like a digital cupboard where files are stored. For example, saving photos on your computer uses its storage.

Storage space is the amount of room available for storing data. It's like how much space you have in a cupboard. If you have a lot of storage space, you can save many files.
