Data saved in the ROM
cannot be changed or
modified once it has
been saved, it can only
be read or displayed.
RAM stands for
'Random access
memory'
The most common
type of memory found
in computers and
other devices.
The RAM will
clear when
the device is
turned
off,therefore,
none of the
files will be
saved.
Volatile is a type of computer
memory that requires data to
be preserved before the
computer is turned off. This is
ran within applications and
files will be temporarily saved
in the RAM.
Volatile memory is the
most commonly used
memory in computers.
Non volatile memory is used for
long-term storage. It is not
commonly used in computers.
Data will be
automatically
restored in non
volatile memory. It
does not need to
be saved before
the device is
switched off.
