Computer Memory refers to a data storage space where the information may be stored temporarily or permanently.
- Computer Memory may be divided into two broad classifications: Primary Memory and Secondary Memory.
- Primary memory of a computer is composed of the Random Access Memory(RAM) and Read Only Memory (ROM). RAM is the volatile memory from where the data can be retrieved at a very fast speed. ROM on the other hand is permanent in nature and resides on the motherboard in the form of a chip. ROM is vital to the boot process of the computer.
- Secondary memory refers to the hardware devices like the hard disc and the external devices like CD/DVD drives, pen drives, external hard discs and so on. These devices store data on a permanent basis. The secondary memory storage devices can store a large amount of data at a time.
