Ram reads and writes to memory; but upon interruption of power loses all data. ROM reads only memory, but is not dependent on power. Easy examples of RAM and ROM technology: RAM: RAM or memory of your computer, vram (graphics card ram) need power to be accessed (read or written to). ROM: CD-ROM, DVD-rom are mediums that require no power to be read from. However the disc does need a drive drive needing power to spin the disc and power for the laser to read the binary code. But the individual cells don't need power to keep the data. To some extend a harddrive, flash drive, ssd, BIOS chip, CD-DVD RW's are a mixture between both; can be recorded to, and don't need power to retain the data.
