RAM (Random Access Memory) is a volatile memory which is used by the CPU as the Primary Memory of the system. CPU stores frequently used data of the programs running at a moment in RAM as RAM is faster than storage devices, this helps the CPU to work faster. Cache memory is faster than the …
RAM stands for Random Access Memory and ROM stands for Read Only Memory. Both of these devices are memory devices and are required by a system to function. Following are the differences between RAM and ROM. Differences Between RAM and ROM: # RAM ROM 1 RAM is a volatile memory, that is, it requires external …
Differences between optical and magnetic storage devices are how they store and retrieve data. Both devices are used for long term data storage. However, magnetic storage devices such as hard disk exists because of huge storage capacity and optical storage devices such as CD exists because of it’s portability feature.
