Long term memory is found on secondary storage devices.
What else can I help you with?
Is virtual memory kept in secondary storage?
Yes, virtual memory uses a combination of both primary (RAM) and secondary (disk storage) memory. When the RAM is full, data is temporarily transferred to the hard drive to free up space for new operations, which is why virtual memory is sometimes referred to as "paging file" or "swap file."
What is ccashe?
Cache is a memory or storage device of a temporary data in computer. Cache is commonly found in the web browser.
Is a Pen or Thumb Drive the best secondary storage device?
The best secondary storage device that I have found is a Desktop External Drive. They are USB run and can easily be connected to the computer or disconnected. Pen or Thumb Drives do not have a large amount of space, like External Drives have, and Thumbs can be easily lost.
What storage devices contains no moving parts and connect directly to a USB port?
Assuming you mean a data-storage device (for use with computers) then the most clear cut answer would be a CD-ROM or a DVD-ROM, neither of which have any moving parts by themselves. The disc-reader however would have moving parts which may negate the idea of a stationary storage device.Flash memory is another form of storage which is commonly found in USB drives and small electronics. It has no moving parts.
Found on the motherboard short and long term?
ROM- read only memory permanent storage The right answer is Memory
What makes Kingston Memory so good?
Kingston memory is not better than any other type of memory, it is just a brand for storage media. The memory found in Kingston devices is the same as any other brand of storage media.
Where is secondary storage found?
It depends on the Location whether ur selected In C:/ , D:/ and E:/ . by default it 'll stores in Documents .
The greatest nonvolatile storage capacity in the computer system is found in the?
The greatest nonvolatile storage capacity in the computer system is usually found in secondary storage and mostly on the hard disk. RAM on the other hand represents the greatest volatile storage capacity on a computer.
What is the name of the backing storage device found in a typical PC?
CD-R, DVD-R and external hdd
What storage has no motor or moving parts?

It has no moving parts.
What is the difference between primary storage device and secondary storage device?
Primary StorageTwo classifications of primary storage with which you should become familiar are read-only memory (ROM) and random-access memory (RAM).READ-ONLY MEMORY (ROM).-In computers, it is useful to have instructions that are used often, permanently stored inside the computer. ROM enables us to do this without loosing the programs and data when the computer is powered down. Only the computer manufacturer can provide these programs in ROM; once done, you cannot change it. Consequently, you cannot put any of your own data or programs in ROM. Many complex functions, such as translators for high-level languages, and operating systems are placed in ROM memory.Since these instructions are hardwired, they can be performed quickly and accurately. Another advantage of ROM is that your imaging facility can order programs tailored for its specific needs and have them installed permanently in ROM. Such programs are called microprograms or firmware.RANDOM-ACCESS MEMORY (RAM).-RAM is another type of memory found inside computers. It may be compared to a chalkboard on which you can scribble down notes, read them, and erase them when finished. In the computer, RAM is the working memory. Data can be read (retrieved) or written (stored) in RAM by providing the computer with an address location where the data is stored or where you want it to be stored. When the data is no longer requited, you may simply write over it. Thus you can use the storage location again for something else.Secondary StorageSecondary storage, or auxiliary storage, is memory external to the main body of the computer (CPU) where programs and data can be stored for future use. When the computer is ready to use these programs, the data is read into primary storage. Secondary storage media extends the storage capabilities of the computer system. Secondary storage is required for two reasons. First, the working memory of the CPU is limited in size and cannot always hold the amount of data required. Second, data and programs in secondary programs do not disappear when the power is turned off. Secondary storage is nonvolatile memory. This information is lost only when you erase it. Magnetic disks are the most common type of secondary storage. They may be either floppy disks or hard disks (hard drives).PERIPHERAL DEVICESPeripheral devices include all the input and output devices used with a computer system. When these devices are under control of the CPU, they are said to be on line. When they perform their function independently, not under direct control of the CPU, they are said to be off line. The following peripheral devices are used commonly for input and output. Those that perform only input are marked (I), those that perform only output are marked (O), and those that perform both input and output are marked (I/O).Optical Character Reader (I)An optical character reader reads printed data (characters) and translates it to machine code. Keyboard (I) The keyboard is used by a computer operator to communicate with a computer system.
In a computer is cmos part of the hard drive?
No, CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor) is not part of the hard drive. CMOS refers to a type of technology used for memory that stores BIOS settings and system configuration information. This memory is typically found on the motherboard, not on the hard drive. The hard drive itself is a storage device for data and programs.
