This is what you're aware of at that moment, what's currently happening. The hard drive is memory storage. This is long-term memory. Data can be retrieved from here & brought into RAM, & data can be stored here from RAM. But this is long term memory, and is stored on a disk drive separate from but connected to the motherboard.
