Yes. A SIMM is a single in-line memory module. All this really means is that contacts on both sides of the module are redundant. SIMM was replaced with DIMM (dual in-line memory module).

Define primary memory?
primary memory is built in memory on a computer it is the main type of memory.... eg RAM ROM and HDD
List the advantages of dynamic RAM compared with static RAM?
Static RAM and dynamic RAM are two available types of computer RAM, or Random Access Memory. One advantage of static RAM is speed, while a disadvantage is cost. An advantage of dynamic RAM is storage space, while a disadvantage would be speed.
What type of simple machine is the jaws of life?
The jaws of life is a hydraulic rescue tool used by emergency rescue personnel, mainly to extract vehicle crash victims. It is a type of cutter, spreader, door buster or ram powered by a hydraulic pump.
What memory on a computer can be easily lost?
Memory that requires power to maintain it is "volatile memory" and includes RAM. RAM is random access memory, and, to keep it simple, the data put in RAM by the microprocessor is lost when power to the RAM is interrupted. That's like when the machine is shut down or loses power. Data stored in RAM "disappears" if the memory is not "kept alive" by the power supply. RAM is not designed to "hold" data when the machine powers off. Computers don't rely on RAM to "remember" what is in it at shut down. When the machine boots up next work cycle, RAM is reloaded with what the microprocessor wants in it to support operations.
Which type is generally faster and holds data and instructions while the data is being processed Which type of storage is generally slower but more permanent?
In a computer, there are many forms of media storage. We can catagorize them into 3 different categories - ROM (such as BIOS), RAM (memory), and Storage (flash drives, hard disk drives, etc.). Keep in mind that RAM retains information only when the power is on. ROM is usually stored in the BIOS chip. It basically gives your computer the most basic instructions to tell your computer to do a system check and boot your operating system. RAM is used by the computer to do just about everything. When your computer executes a program, for example, it loads the program into the RAM, interprets it, and runs it. It is generally faster than storage devices, but it cannot retain information once power is cut from it. Storage medium, as the name implies, for storing data. All data, programs, and files must be present on it for it to do anything useful.

What is SIMM in computer?
SIMM (Single Inline Memory Module), is a form of RAM (Random Access Memory) It is a ram chip with memory chips on one side. A DIMM (Dual Inline Memory Module) is like a SIMM, but has memory chips on both sides.
Most important hardware components needed for gaming?
Generally after a hard drive with enough space to hold your files you need a good amount of RAM. RAM is basically what makes the computer faster, and the types of RAM chips vary from 32 Pin SIMM, 72 Pin SIMM, 168 Pin DIMM, DDR 2 and 3, and all sorts of others.
What are the various types of RAM?
* Simm * SD * Dimm * DDR1 * DDR2 * DDR3 * SRAM (Static RAM, that stores data as a state of a flip-flop) * DRAM (Dynamic RAM, that stores data as a charge in a capacitor).
How are simm and dimm a like?
SIMMs and DIMM are both type of main memory modules. One in single-sided (SIMM) and one is double-sided (DIMM).

Kevin Simm's birth name is Kevin Ian Simm.
What does the acronym 'SIMM' stand for?
SIMM stands for "Single In-line Memory Module". It is a type of random access memory that was used in computers in the early 1980's to the late 1990's.
