  1. Computer Memory: The Ultimate Guide By MyTechTrick

  2. What is Computer Memory? Memory is the storage of data, instructions, and results received from various sources. It is also called remembering in common language, that is, memory. The device used by the computer to remember is called computer memory. It is like the human brain.

  3. Types of Computer Memory There are three types of computer memory: • Primary Memory • Secondary Memory • Cache Memory

  4. What is Primary Memory? The main memory of the computer is primary memory. Which stores the type of program or data, which is currently being processed by a Central Processing Unit (CPU). There are mainly two types of primary memory which include RAM, and ROM. Their storage capacity is very less but it provides much faster access to data than secondary storage (SDD and HDD).

  5. RAM: It is a semiconductor memory. Technically, RAM means read/write memory, that is, a device on which writes and reads can be done. When any part of the memory is read, no change takes place in that part. But if any information is filled on any part of the memory, then the contents already in that part are automatically lost. DRAM SDRAM RDRAM ROM: The term ROM refers to "Read Only Memory". Technically, the contents of ROM are read-only and cannot be modified. They are insincere. That is, even if there is no sudden power outage, there is no loss to the information stored in the ROM. Therefore, ROM is used to store programs and data permanently. EPROM PROM EAROM EEPROM

  6. What is Secondary Memory? Secondary memory is designed to achieve this limit of primary memory. It meets our needs for long-term and permanent storage. Therefore, the data which has to be stored for a long time is stored in the secondary memory. This is the computer memory that is not directly inbuilt in the computer. It is connected to the motherboard of the computer by some wires etc. In this, the data is recorded permanently. MAGNETIC DISKS MAGNETIC TAPES OPTICAL DISCS

  7. What is Cache Memory? Cache memory is more high-speed memory. Sometimes it is used to increase the speed of processing by building programs. This memory is used in computer systems to relieve the speed differential between main memory access times and processor logic. Cache memory is used in the CPU to store the fast-executed programs and the data needed for the current calculations. Source: MyTechTrick
