If you want to store programs and data permanently on a computer where is it placed?
Data can be placed in a multitude of locations in a computer, but most often it is placed in the hard drive.
However, if a computer has a CD/DVD burner, a floppy disc drive, or a USB thumb drive, then data could be placed on those locations as well, but installed programs typically do not reside on any kind of removable storage device like CD/DVDs, floppy discs, or USB thumb drives.
There is no way to permanently store data on a computer on most storage drives since many can be erased by the user, with the only exception being certain types of CDs and DVDs which can write data on a particular section of the disc once.
What else can I help you with?
What 4 component make up a computer system?
According to Intel: Input, Output, Processing and Storage. Input devices send data and instructions to the central processing unit. Processing executes computer instructions. Memory holds data and programs temporarily. Output devices make processed data available to the user. Storage devices store data and programs permanently.
Programs that are stored permanently in the computer's electronic circuitry are known as?
Programs stored in ROM are sometimes referred to as firmware.In recent years, however, the term firmware is used as a more general term, often referring to software preloaded into a device, but not necessarily in reference to its immutable nature. In fact, most modern devices store firmware in non-volatile but modifiable memories such as flash memory to allow for upgrading and patching.
Hardware consist of the computer programs?
No, Computer programs are called software.Hardware is physical stuff, that you can see and touch and take up a physical space, such as the cabinet, circuit boards and drive units.Software is like electricty, you cannot see it but you can see it's effects, you can store it, copy it and use it, but you cannot really touch it.
What are computer storage devices and how do they function within a computer system?
Computer storage devices are hardware components that store and retrieve data in a computer system. They function by saving data in a way that can be accessed quickly and efficiently by the computer's processor. This allows users to store files, programs, and other information for later use. Common types of storage devices include hard drives, solid-state drives, and USB flash drives.
What are the 4 fundamental components of a computer system?

Why are modern digital computer often referred to as stored program digital computer?
Because they store the programs they are running in the same memory as they store the data that those programs are working on.
What is the anatomy of computer?
Central Processing Unit (CPU): The 'brain' of the computer, the component that actually executes instructions. Memory : It enables a computer to store, at least temporarily, data and programs. Input device : Usually a keyboard or mouse is used to read data and programs into the computer. Output device: A display screen, printer, etc. that lets you see what the computer has accomplished. Mass storage device: It allows a computer to permanently store large amounts of data. Common mass storage devices include disk drive and tape drive.

Is there anyway to store a program in the RAM permanently so when i open this program it will do faster?
When you shut down your computer, everything in RAM is erased, but the hard disk has long-term storage for the computer.
What best defines a cloud computing model?
Cloud computing a model where the user doesn't have to store the programs or data on their computer. The "cloud" is on an off-site computer that the customer can access. This means that the programs and data will be available from whatever computer the customer happens to be using.
