What is RAM?

Define RAM:

Random access memory (RAM) is a type of data storage used in computers that is generally located on the motherboard. This type of memory is volatile and all information that was stored in RAM is lost when the computer is turned off. Volatile memory is temporary memory while ROM (read-only memory) is non-volatile and holds data permanently when the power is turned off. 

There are two main types of RAM:

⏩ Dynamic random access memory (DRAM), or Dynamic RAM
⏩ Static random access memory (SRAM).
