RAM stands for Random Access Memory, and it is the RAM that allows you to operate more than one program at a time on your computer. The more RAM you have, the faster your computer will be able to run programs. SD RAM was used on computers built some years ago, but manufacturers have moved on to using DDR RAM (double data rate ram), which operates faster. RD RAM is used on a limited number of computers.

DDR RAM is memory that was commonly used as the main memory in computers and printers several years ago. There are a number of different variations on it:

DIMMs are the typical desktop sized modules, 184 pins and about 5" long

SODIMMs are a smaller package for laptops, 200 pins and about 2" in length

MicroDIMMs were used in a very few laptops
