2. Random-access memory - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Random-access_memory

   Software can "partition" a portion of a computer's RAM, allowing it to act as a much faster hard drive that is called a RAM disk. A RAM disk loses the stored data when the computer is shut down, unless memory is arranged to have a standby battery source, or changes to the RAM disk are written out to a nonvolatile disk.

3. Computer memory - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_memory

   If needed, contents of the computer memory can be transferred to storage; a common way of doing this is through a memory management technique called virtual memory. Modern computer memory is implemented as semiconductor memory, [5] [6] where data is stored within memory cells built from MOS transistors and other components on an integrated ...

4. Computer hardware - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_hardware

   Computer hardware. Computer hardware includes the physical parts of a computer, such as the central processing unit (CPU), random access memory (RAM), motherboard, computer data storage, graphics card, sound card, and computer case. It includes external devices such as a monitor, mouse, keyboard, and speakers. [1][2]

5. Computer data storage - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_data_storage

   Computer data storage or digital data storage is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media that are used to retain digital data. It is a core function and fundamental component of computers. [1]: 15–16. The central processing unit (CPU) of a computer is what manipulates data by performing computations.

6. Dynamic random-access memory - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_random-access_memory

   DRAM chips are widely used in digital electronics where low-cost and high-capacity computer memory is required. One of the largest applications for DRAM is the main memory (colloquially called the "RAM") in modern computers and graphics cards (where the "main memory" is called the graphics memory).

7. Memory cell (computing) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_cell_(computing)

   Computer memory and computer data storage types. The memory cell is the fundamental building block of computer memory. The memory cell is an electronic circuit that stores one bit of binary information and it must be set to store a logic 1 (high voltage level) and reset to store a logic 0 (low voltage level).
