Can ROM be used as a secondary device?

Yes, ROM (Read-Only Memory) can be used as a secondary device, typically in the form of external memory modules or chips. While primary storage is often volatile (like RAM), ROM serves to store firmware and system software that do not require frequent updates. In some cases, secondary storage solutions, such as BIOS chips or embedded systems, utilize ROM to retain essential data and instructions even when the power is off. However, it is less common to use ROM as a primary form of secondary storage compared to options like hard drives or SSDs.
