Answer 1

RAM (Random Access Memory)

SIMM - Single memory module

DIMM - Dual memory module

SDRAM - Single Data "RAM"

DDR - Dual data rate

DDR2 - Dual data rate x 2

DDR3 - Dual data rate x 3

ECC - Error Correction

Mhz - Speed of data transmitted

Timings - Communication between the various chips

DDR2- 1024mb - 1024mb refers to the size of the RAM stick

Answer 2

There have been many ways to install RAM over the decades. When I first started working with home computers, RAM was expanded by a big brick (measuring about four inches high, four inches wide, and about two inches thick) that attached through the back using a proprietary interface on the back of the computer...and this expanded it from 4K to a "whopping" 16K.

Since then, RAM has been installed by directly installing individual chips onto the motherboard and later by installing SIP or SIM modules with the latter being the closest to what we use today. As we approach the end of 2016, the most common memory interface is DDR3 but DDR4 is starting to make its presence known in the market as well, finally coming down from the server market and into the higher-end of the home computer and gaming computer arenas.

If you have any other questions about this or other computer-related issues, feel free to drop me a line. I'm always glad to help!
