Question

Ann wants to save her presentation so she can work on it later. Which device on her computer can store this data long term?

Answer 1

So memory in a computer can be classified into 3 types or can be stored into 3 devices, which are 1) RAM(Random Access Memory) 2) ROM(Read Only Memory) 3) Hard Disk.

The memory in the RAM can only be stored only for a short period of time. It erases the data when the computer is shut down.

The memory in the ROM is a permanent memory but it only stores the useful system file, which comes when the manufacturer manufactures it.

The Hard disk is the one, which store all the files we create or download or save.

So, the Hard disk stores Ann's presentation. :)
