VOLATILE MEMORY : RAM

•RAM chips usually reside on a memory module and are inserted into memory slot

•The amount of RAM necessary in a computer often depends on the types of software you plan to use

THREE BASIC TYPES OF RAM
DYNAMIC RAM (DRAM
•Chips must be re-energized constantly or they lose their contents.

STATIC RAM (SRAM)
• Chips are faster and more reliable than any
variation of DRAM chips.
• Are much more expensive than DRAM chips.

MAGNETORESISTIVE RAM (MRAM)
• A newer type of RAM, called magnetoresistive
RAM (MRAM pronounced EM-ram), stores data using
magnetic charges instead of electrical charges
