What is computer memory and its type?

What is Primary Memory of a Computer?

How many types of Primary Computer Memory?

Why Computer Memory is used?

 There are Two types of Computer memory

 

1. Primary Computer  Memory

2. Secondary Computer Memory

• Primary Compute Memory

Primary memory is the main memory of the computer. In primary memory, data is not saved forever, in that data is only temporary save. Primary memory stores the input data and processes the data and gives the output result.

There are two types of Primary storage memory

1. RAM (Random Access Memory)

2. ROM (Read Only Memory)

1. RAM (RANDOM ACCESS MEMORY) 

Ram is the main primary storage memory. RAM is done by placing it in the RAM slot of the Motherboard. It is also a physical component of our computer system. ram's works  monitor has to provide display. ram is also used for multitasking and gaming on our PC.

Types of RAM

1. SRAM(Static Random Access Memory)

2. DRAM(Dynamic Random Access Memory)

2. ROM( Read Only Memory)

The full form of ROM is Read Only Memory. This is a Non volatile memory. ROM data can only be read, it cannot be read. The command given to start a computer is saved in this memory. It is cheaper than RAM.

Types of ROM

1. MROM (MASK READ ONLY MEMORY)

2. PROM (PROGRAMMABLE READ ONLY MEMORY)

3. EPROM (ERASABLE READ ONLY MEMORY)

4. EEPROM (ELECTRONICALLY ERASABLE READ ONLY MEMORY)

• Secondary Computer Memory

Secondary computer memory is called that in which data and software are saved permanently. Secondary memory data remains saved even when the computer is off compared to primary memory.

Types of Secondary Memory

1. HDD(Hard Disk Drive)

2. SSD(Solid State Drive)

3. FDD(Floppy Disk Drive)

4. Pendrive

5. CD or DVD(Compact Disk or Digital Versatile Disk)
