Question

What is difference between RAM and ROM?

Answer 1

Hi pupil here's your answer ::


________________________

RAM ::

● Data can be read and written on the RAM chip at any number of times.

● The operating system, application programs and the user data is stored in Ram only until the computer is powered on.

● Ram is a volatile memory that loses its contents when the computer is switched off.

● The size of RAM makes a difference in the processing, i.e. the bigger size of the RAM the greater is the speed of processing.

ROM ::

● Data can only be read from the ROM chip.

● Only system programs are stored in ROM. It can't be used to store user data and other programs.

● ROM is non volatile memory the data stored in ROM is permanent in nature.

● Size of the ROM has nothing to do with processing.
