Why ram is used by processor?
use of ram:- use it as primary storage. suppose you put a data into it.ram is the only who save the data for primary time.
Why do you use RAM in computer?
All of the data that is temporary is stored in random access memory. Incoming data and the solutions to calculations are stored in ram.
Why not use a hard drive to store all data and instructions instead of RAM?
The speed of getting the next instruction to be executed. RAM nowdays is at least 100,000 times faster than accessing the same amount of data on a hard drive.
Why do you use ram in computer if hard disks can save data permanently?
access to ram is a lot faster for your computer
What is the ram from a laptop?
RAM (also know Main memory - dynamic ram) which is inside the CPU is used fir holding any data currently in use by the processor.Registers (which are a form of Static RAM) which are in the processor are used forHolding data that is being transferred to or from memory(RAM)Holding the address of the location in memory which the processor is accessing to read data from or write data to.Holds instructionsthat are being executed.
Can Ram be used to backup files?
Generally, no. RAM is volatile memory, which means that all data there will be lost when the computer is powered off. Normally your computer only uses it for data (and programs) which is currently in use. But there ARE devices that use RAM for data storage (e.g. PDAs and some fancy solid-state drives). These devices usually provide a battery to power the RAM when the device is turned off. Note that DVD-RAM is a rewritable non-volatile media. It retains its data when powered off but you can change the data later.
Where the computer stores temporarily all programs and data currently use?
ram
Does the random access memory tell the computer what to do?
The RAM is where programs and their data reside when they are in use. The RAM can accept inputs, and send and receive data from the CPU. It is the "work area" of the computer, while the hard drive is the "warehouse" where everything stays when not in use. "Virtual RAM" consists of areas of the hard drive used as temporary storage when the data exceeds the available space of the actual RAM.
Can a 32-bit OS use more than 4GB of memory?
yes the bit system is only for drivers or software's working but ram actually increase the speed of processing and huge amount of data load a time on ram so u can increase your ram as you want

Why do you not use ram for data storage?
Because it is volatile, i.e: when the computer looses power, the data will be gone. But, for things like open files, they are stored in the RAM, then when you save them, they get written to a disk of some sort.
What is a RAM stick?
RAM (random access memory). this is the place in a computer where the operating system, application programs, and data in current use are kept so that they can be quickly reached by the computer's processor. RAM is much faster to read from and write to than the other kinds of storage in a computer, the hard disk, floppy disk, and CD-ROM. However, the data in RAM stays there only as long as your computer is running. When you turn the computer off, RAM loses its data. When you turn your computer on again, your operating system and other files are once again loaded into RAM, usually from your hard disk.
