direct memory access (DMA)
RAM (Random Access Memory) and SRAM (Static Random Access Memory) are the most commonly used types of memory used to hold instructions. RAM is the familiar chips you see people use to upgrade memory on the machine. SRAM is normally integrated and very expensive but much faster than normal RAM because it communicates directly with the processor.

Computer memory is a form of computer data storage, which takes the form of integrated circuits. There are two types of computer memory: Random-access memory (RAM) and Read-only memory (ROM).
It's called DMA (Direct Memory Access)
RAM stands for Random Access Memory. This is the memory that a computer stores temporarily on an integrated circuit which allows any portion of the memory to be accessed with out moving through previous portions. Any portion of the memory can be accessed in the same amount of time as any other portion of memory since no physical process is used to access this memory.
The 8086/8088 has 20 address lines. It can access 220, or 1MB, or 1,048,576 bytes of memory.

DMA Direct Memory Access DMA transfers data directly from the drive to memory w/out involving the CPU.
Because it stores all of the f iles and datas needed in a computer
