No.

Your programs and your data in the computer are stored on the hard drive (with very few exceptions). RAM memory is the 'working' memory of the machine, it is volatile memory that is erased when the power is turned off, so removing or replacing RAM will not delete anything from your hard drive.

That said, you should always have a current backup of your important data and programs before you undertake any repairs or upgrades to your computer.

Is memory size of mini computer is higher than micro computer?

Yes, with a small disclaimer. A micro computer, also known as a computer chip or chip is tiny, generally smaller than your finger. The memory available here is contained inside the chip. Size generally around kilo Bytes to mega Bytes. A mini computer is big. It is like a personal computer on steroids but still not as good a super computer. When referring to the memory here we usually think of separate memory modules, just like what you have in your home computer. Size generally from Giga Bytes and up. A mini computer does however consist of chips and this is where my disclaimer comes in. Chips interface external memory (which is also built of chips..) and the only limit here depends on how much the chip can address. Forgive my sloppiness and note that a micro computer chip is quite different from a memory chip, as the memory chip mainly stores and trancieves data while the micro computer can also execute a man made program...
