= consists of electronic components that
store instructions waiting to be executed by the
processor

~ RAM = Random Access Memory
~ ROM = Read Only Memory

° Types of memory :-
^{° Volatile (RAM)}
¹. Temporary : loses its contents when
the power is turned off
². Can be read from and written to by the
processor and other device
³. Hold data or programs that are
currently being used by the processor
⁴. RAM chip usually reside on a memory
module and are inserted onto the
memory slot

∆ Types of RAM :-

^{✓ DRAM (Dynamic RAM)}
=Chips must be re-
energized constantly or
they lose their contents.

^{✓ SRAM (Static RAM)}
=Chips are faster and
more reliable than any
variation of DRAM chips

^{✓ MRAM (Magnetoresistive RAM)}
=Stores data using
magnetic charges instead
of electrical charges

_{° Non-volatile (ROM)}
¹. Permanently : Does not lose contents
when the power turned off
². Data is prerecord for read only
³. Contain a small startup program
(BIOS) which is used to boot the computer
⁴. Exist as a chip on the motherboard

∆ Types of ROM :-

^{✓ PROM (Programmable ROM)}
= A blank ROM chip
on which a programmer
can write permanently.

^{✓ EPROM (Erasable ROM)}
= These chips can be
erased and rewritten a
number of times

^{✓ EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable ROM)}
= Allows a programmer
to erase the microcode
with an electric signal]]> 2020-11-02 09:03:14 UTC https://padlet.com/m5514157/puha6dniv7604402/wish/881638447 🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼 m5514157 https://padlet.com/m5514157/puha6dniv7604402/wish/882812066 ∆ Storage device

= The hardware that records or retrieves items to and from storage media.

• Writing

The process of transferring data, instructions , and information from memory to a storage medium.

• Reading

The process of transferring data, instruction and information from a storage medium into memory.

∆ Storage Media

= The physical materials on which a computer keeps data, instruction and information.

• Types of storage:-

^{• Magnetic Storage}

= Use different patterns of magnetization on a magnetically coated surface to store information

_{Example :}
√ Hard disk
» External hard disk (wireless/use cable)
= Separate free-standing hard disk
» Removable hard disk
» Internal & External hard disk (in miniature sizes)

√ Floppy disk

• Optical storage
= Stores information in deformities on the surface of a circular disc

^{Example :}
› Compact Disc (CD)
+ CD-ROM
+ CD- R
+ CD-RW

› Digital Video Disc (DVD)
+ DVD- ROM
+ DVD-RW
+ DVD+RW
+ DVD+RAM

› Blu-ray Disc (BD)
+ BD-ROM

• Flash memory
^{Example :}
≥ Solid state drives
≥ Memory card
= Removable flash memory device that insert and remove from a slot in a computer/ mobile device
- compact Flash (CF)
- Secure Digital (SD)
- microSD
≥ USB flash drives
