Knowing the different types of Computer Memory is important. The post talks of HDD, SSD, Flash Memory, RAM, ROM, Tape Drives.

Perhaps the most well-known type of memory is random access memory (RAM), which is used for temporary storage of data and instructions that are actively being used by the computer’s processor.

Some researchers suggest these are not distinct types of memory, but rather stages of memory. In this view, memory begins in sensory memory, transitions to short-term memory, and then may move to ...

A new design for computer memory that could both greatly improve performance and reduce the energy demands of internet and communications technologies, which ...

As soon as you switch off the computer, the content in your processor’s cache memory is lost. As with most types of memory, the more cache a CPU offers, the better.

A pioneering type of patented computer memory known as ULTRARAM™ has been demonstrated on silicon wafers in what is a major step towards its large-scale manufacture. ULTRARAM™ is novel type of ...

Researchers at the University of Cambridge have developed a novel computer memory design that could boost performance using less energy.

Compression Attached Memory Modules may make upgradable laptops a thing again The CAMM2 spec was recently finalized, and memory makers are testing the waters.

Cambridge scientists have developed a new prototype for computer memory that could make for faster chips that could hold up to 100 times more data. The system is made up of barium bridges between ...

Brown University researchers found that humans and AI integrate two types of learning – fast, flexible learning and slower, ...
