Temporary storage in a computer is designated as RAM (Random Access Memory), and gets reset every time the computer is shut down; unlike permanent storage (Harddrives, Flash Drives). RAM allows a computer to run programs without bogging down the harddrive, which is much slower by comparison.

WHAT IS TEMPORARY MEMORY CALLED?

How to fix temporary memory when it says no memory?
How to fix ram, or temporary memory, that says no memory?
Which type of memories do printers have?
For temporary memory printers usually use the same types of DRAM as most computers do. Some printers also have a hard disk option available for storing very large print jobs that could not fit in the temporary memory so that the computers using that printer will not have to wait for such jobs to finish.
Why did the Colossus computer need valves?
the first electronic computers were built before the invention of the transistor or integrated circuit chip. They used vacuum tubes for the processing and temporary memory. In Britain those tubes were called valves.
What was the role of the valves in Colossus?

How do you check computers cache memory in windows 7?
Look in the temporary internet files on the hard drive of the computer to find the cache memory in windows 7. There you should be able to see the cache files.
What is temporary storage on chips called?
Temporary storage on chips is called memory. Most such solid-state memory is in the form of random-access memory (RAM) chips, usually dynamic RAM (DRAM). The people who write operating systems and the computer architects that design computer systems and CPUs often use many different temporary storage areas, each one with a different name. If you are building a high-speed computer or writing a high-performance operating system, you will learn about the temporary storage areas known as the disk page cache, the stack, the heap, and the virtual memory page table, are (more or less) stored in the main memory DRAM. The CPU has a few temporary locations called registers. Often there is one or more levels of cache (the L1 cache, the L2 cache, etc.) between the CPU and the main memory. High-performance CPUs typically put a cache on the same chip as the CPU; some older personal computers had an "external cache" SRAM chips between the CPU chip and the main memory DRAM chips. Many high-performance computers have several levels of successively larger and slower caches -- an extremely fast I-cache and D-cache and TLB, the L1 cache, the L2 cache, the L3 cache, and main memory.
