A magnetic tape cartridge is neither RAM (Random Access Memory) nor ROM (Read-Only Memory); it is a form of storage media. Magnetic tapes are used for data storage and retrieval, functioning as a sequential access storage medium. Unlike RAM, which is volatile and used for temporary data storage, or ROM, which is non-volatile and permanently stores firmware, magnetic tapes are primarily used for backup and archival purposes.
two types - magnetic in the form of magnetic tape,magnetic disc and optical in the form of compact disc.
Of these only CD-ROMs use LASERs to access the data. The others are magnetic storage devices.
The first one is the CD-ROM, the second one is the DVD-ROM, then the DVD-RAM, then the WORM-SAVE, then the Blueray and at least the eresable storages.
only rom
Well, they are both types of memory that consume space and storage in the computer. So in a way, ROM is a type of RAM. Hope this helped ***Edit: No, ROM is Read-Only Memory such as a CD-ROM, DVD, Magnetic Tape, or other form of media that is one time use only. Generally used for data storage. RAM, or Random Access Memory, is a set of chips that fit on your motherboard used to hold programs and processes in active memory. When you open a program like Microsoft Word, it calls the executable and all necessary resources into RAM so it can actually run. Hope this helps more. ***
