There are tow kinds of 'caches' in computers. Either a cache is in RAM or on the Hard drive. It is use by the system to store temporary information that either the system or application may use or not for a little while. Its purpose is to speed up the operation of the computer. It is like a mechanic's helper who holds tools that the mechanic may need for the job he is doing, and hands it to him when he asks for it.
