temporary
"Permanent storage", because the data does not disapear when the power is turned off.
Hard drives are not volatile storage devices, because the information within them is not lost when the drive loses power.
Volatile storage: if storage media loses data while power goes off, it is termed as volatile storage media for example RAM. It is the fastest among the three in terms of data access time. Non-volatile storage: If storage media retains data even while power goes off, it is termed as non-volatile storage media. For example: hard disk. It is faster than stable storage but slower as compared to volatile storage. Stable Storage:Information that is residing in stable storage is certainly not lost (theoretically). A natural catastrophe may result in a loss if not the probability of data loss is negligible. For example by using multiple hard disks as in the case of RAID technology. This is the slowest of all storage media mentioned above.
Because the computer can only run programs that reside in RAM. RAM is volatile; it loses its content when power is removed from it. "Storage" is non-volatile; retains its content when power is removed from it.
Volatile Storage
It is the level of secondary storage that retains data when power is turned off. For example: Memory is volatile if it loses its data when the power is removed.
Normally Volatile memory or storage is the real memory in the computer. It is volatile because if the power fails or is turned off the memory (RAM) is erased or reset.
An example of a good colocation service provider is Cybercon Data Center. They provide the space, power, server security, storage , and networking needs.
non-volatile storage
Random Access Memory on any computer only works when the computer is running. No computer running means no data in RAM.Also: RAM is volatile storage because it can onlyhold information if an electric charge is not running through it, which makes it unstable. This is why they call it "volatile." As soon as the power in the computer is shut off, whatever was in the RAM will be wiped out. The hard drive would be an example of non-volatile memory, because it will hold information written to it even when the computer loses power.
Cruachan Power Station is a storage hydro-electric power station whereas a Normal Hydroelectric power station is produced and then used, no storage needed.
