If you want an example, all 'RAM' (Random Access Memory) is volatile - once power is removed the data is lost. Compare this to a CD or your hard disk drive.
Volatile memory is temporary memory that is lost when then computer is shut off (RAM). Non-volatile is permanent memory that that holds its data even when the computer is shut off (ROM, NVRAM). Volatile memory is memory that disappears after you turn off your computer RAM is a big example of that because all the memory on RAM disappears after you turn off your computer. Non-Volatile memory is memory that even if you turn off your computer it will still be there. A huge example of that is hard drive memory. volatile= disappears after the computer is turned off Non-Volatile= never disappears.
Volatile memory is temporary. Non-volatile is used for storing information after the the computer is shut down.
non volatile memory is the computer memory that can retain stored information when not powered . examples flash memory . read only memory.(F) ram.volatile memory is the computer memory that requires power to maintain stored information in other words it need power to reach the computer memory volatile memory retain the information as long as the power supply is on .
volatile memory: The data is lost on reboot. This is the ram memory. Random-access-memory.non-volatile memory: The data is saved to a hard drive or flash drive, or it could be a hard coded chip. This is ROM memory. Read-only-memory.Volatile memory: you will lost all of your data when your electricity go out. Ram is volatile memory. When you shutdown your computer. Info that haven't saved is destroyed.Nonvolatile memory: All data that stored in this type of memory wil retain when you shutdown your computer. Rom is of type nonvolatile memory.Non-volatile holds its data even when the power is turned off.Volatile memory: you will lost all of your data when your electricity go out. Ram is volatile memory. When you shutdown your computer. Info that haven't saved is destroyed.Nonvolatile memory: All data that stored in this type of memory wil retain when you shutdown your computer. Rom is of type nonvolatile memory.
non volatile memory is memory that doesn't wipe after the computer shuts down e.g: Flash memory.
Normally Volatile memory or storage is the real memory in the computer. It is volatile because if the power fails or is turned off the memory (RAM) is erased or reset.
The primary means of storage of a computer is the RAM memory which is a volatile memory.
Volatile memory is computer memory that requires power to maintain the stored information. Non-volatile random-access memory that retains its information when power is turned off. There is random access memory, cache memory, read only memory, virtual memory and flash memory.
Modern Computers have both volatile memory - RAM and non-volatile memory - Hard Disk
RAM, Random Access Memory is the Volatile memory; Which in return means that when you shut off your computer this memory will be completely wiped
There are two types of memory in a computer - volatile and non-volatile. Volatile memory is the Random Access Memory (RAM) which is lost after the power is cut. The non-volatile memory is the hard drive which permanently writes information (binary code) to metal platers using magnet charges. After the computer is powered off, the magnetic charges do not change.
RAM, or random access memory.
