The Hard Disk Drive stores the majority of data and programs on your computer. Any time a program or the operating system itself is called, the program is copied from the HDD to the RAM. It runs from the RAM because it can be read and modified much more quickly. Then all changes are writen back to the HDD for storage, since it does not require power to hold information.
