There are two main categories of memory: Internal memory: it temporarily memorizes data while programs are running. Internal memory uses micro conductors, i.e., fast specialized electronic circuits.

Knowing the different types of Computer Memory is important. The post talks of HDD, SSD, Flash Memory, RAM, ROM, Tape Drives.

Sensory memory holds sensory information for very brief periods of time, usually 1 second or less. The processing of memories and other information begins in this type of memory.

A memory upgrade's the best way to speed up that slow computer, but the RAM stick aisle at your local computer parts retailer is a cold and scary place. A little pre-research is in order: the How ...

Memory loss is often associated with aging, but there are a number of things that can trigger short- and long-term memory loss, including injury, medications and witnessing a traumatic event.

Computer memory card (credit: PXFUEL) The researchers at Cambridge experimented with a new type of technology known as resistive switching memory, that could potentially solve the problem of ...

Note: seems like planar memory could give serious competition to 3D memory. One potential solution to the problem of inefficient computer memory is a new type of technology known as resistive ...

One potential solution to the problem of inefficient computer memory is a new type of technology known as resistive switching memory. Conventional memory devices are capable of two states: one or ...

A new type of universal computer memory - ULTRARAM™ - has taken a step closer towards development with a successful experiment. 'Universal memory' is a memory where the data is robustly stored ...
