∙ 12y agoRAM is volatile memory so you need to save your work before turning the computer off,is indeed volatile because of it's primary nature,so there is a need ]for back-up pin the advanced technology.By ibnbassoft.

∙ 9y agoIt depends on the type of cache memory. In a typical processor, it is volatile. But on hard drives, it is non-volatile cache.
So the answer is: It depends.

Most CPU caches use SRAM (Static Random Access Memory). SRAM is volatile memory because although it does not need periodic refresh like DRAM, it eventually loses its data after power is turned off.

How do you measure the ram?
RAM is one of the memory... it is non volatile memory...
What is an example of non volatile memory?
ram
What is the different between volatile and non volatile?
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.
Is a Ram a volatile?
RAM is a volatile Memory. But ROM is not volatile.
Is ram violate or non violate?
Assuming you mean 'volatile' - RAM is volatile... When you turn the power off - RAM loses its contents. Non-volatile RAM is able to retain its contents even when the machine is turned off.
When all the data is lost if the power is switch off the memory is what?
inactive
What is the difference between volatile memory and non volatile memory?
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.
One computer has either volatile or nonvolatile storage but never both?
Modern Computers have both volatile memory - RAM and non-volatile memory - Hard Disk
What kind of memory is volatile memory?
RAM[Random Access Memory] is volatile memory.
Why is ram called volatile memory and rom called non volatile memory?
RAM is considered volatile memory because it loses data rapidly and has to be constantly refreshed. It also losses all its data once it loses power. Refference: Comptia A+ Seventh edition
What are some common memory devices?
Non Volatile RAM (NVRAM) Memory DeviceRead Only Memory (ROM) Memory DeviceRandom Access Memory (RAM) Memory Device
Is RAM permanent or volatile?
It can be either depending on the type of RAM. Dynamic RAM (DRAM) requires constant refreshing and will lose its data if power is lost whereas Static RAM (SRAM) will retain its memory state. The majority of RAM in computers is DRAM and volatile. The most common form of non-volatile memory is flash, widely used for USB memory devices.
