Arabic term

التخزين الضخم

Homework / test Arabic to English Tech/Engineering Computers: Software Hard Drive Description
هو وحدة التخزين الأساسية في الحاسب الآلي ، تكمن وظيفتها الأساسية في التخزين الضخم لبيانات الحاسب الآلي، وعلى رأسها نظام الشغيل، وما يلحق به من برامج كالتطبيقات المشهورة مثل تطبيقات الأوفس من مايكروسوفت وغيرها، كما يحتفظ فيها المستخدم بوثائقه الخاصة كالصور وعروض الفيديو وجداول البيانات والمراسلات التي ينتجها عبر التطبيقات المختلفة.

Although "Almaany" confirms "bulk storage" (http://www.almaany.com/home.php?language=arabic&word=ضخم&sea... I'm not sure whether this fits here best.

"Its primary function is bulk storage of the computer data, primarily its operating system and conjoined common applications such as Microsoft Office and others."

Would it be better to say, "Its primary function is storing the bulk of the computer data, primarily etc."

Thanks everyone; how would it fit into the sentence, I'm not quite clear.
("Cloud storage" is not right here, I meant the one everyone agrees on).
