1. What is the difference in volatile and nonvolatile memory?


Is EEPROM a volatile or nonvolatile memory?

Non-volatile. It retains its memory even if power is removed.


Is volatile memory or nonvolatile memory faster?

Volatile memory is temporary. Non-volatile is used for storing information after the the computer is shut down.


What is meant by voletile and nonvolatile?

Volatile memory loses its stored data when power is lost, while nonvolatile memory retains its stored data even without power. Examples of volatile memory include RAM, while nonvolatile memory includes hard drives and SSDs.


One computer has either volatile or nonvolatile storage but never both?

Modern Computers have both volatile memory - RAM and non-volatile memory - Hard Disk


When a computer is turned off does volatile memory lose its contents?

yes, and nonvolatile does not


What can nonvolatile memory do?

Non-volatile memory can retain its contents through a loss of power, assuming the shutdown was properly performed.


What are facts about nonvolatile?

Nonvolatile memory retains data even when power is cut off, like in ROM chips. Nonvolatile storage devices can be slower than volatile ones as they often use technologies such as flash memory. This type of memory is commonly used in devices like USB drives and solid-state drives.


Is volatile memory permanent?

A flash memory chip is a close relative to EEPROM, it differs in that it can erase one block or page at a time. Therefore flash memory is a non volatile memory.


What do you mean voltile memory?

Volatile memory refers to memory that loses its state upon losing power. Computer RAM is volatile. Compare to nonvolatile memory (Hard disk drives, USB NAND flash storage devices, CD and DVD optical media, floppy media)


What is Nonvolitale RAM?

There is no non-volatile RAM, because a hard-drive is what is nonvolatile, because it retains its memory even after there is no power to the computer. RAM is volatile, because when there is no power all data that was stored in the RAM is lost.


Flash memory is a type of?

nonvolatile memory
