Primary memory :- It is basically electronic memory. It's subparts are RAM and ROM. these memories hold data while the computer is ON. RAM is quickly and accessible by the computer. RAM is also important. It stands for read only memory. Some preliminary steps from booting up of the computer are read from the ROM. primary memory is small in size.

Secondary memory :- Ireland is basically magnetic memory or optical or flash but not electronic like. Secondary memory is long term storage or information. secondary memory is mostly much larger in size. The most important secondary memory device is hard disk. CDs, DVDs, flash drives are other secondary storage devices.
