What is RAM ?

RAM stands for Random Access Memory. This is a hardware device located (mounted) in the motherboard that can be removed to upgrade or replace the RAM. This type of memory stores temporary data in the CPU that we read or write until the CPU power is turned off. This type of memory can be described as volatile memory, as it is based on results, data or processing running on the device. In short when CPU is on it works and it is consumed and when CPU is off it clears the memory and gets loaded on next boot.

Every computer has RAM and it defines your CPU performance. Even the CPU booting time depends on the process or RAM in there. If you are working on multi process or want to improve the performance of your CPU then you need to replace your RAM or upgrade RAM capacity as per your respective hardware support.

Types of RAM

There are two types of RAM

  1. DRAM (Dynamic Random Access Memory)
  2. SRAM (Static Random Access Memory)
