Understanding the Different Types of Computer Memory

Posted on

Are you well-versed in computer memory? For example, technically, there are two types of computer memory: primary and secondary. Memory is important, as you may or may not know, because it is the holding place for the instructions and data a computer needs to reach quickly. Further, memory is where information is stored for immediate use, and it’s one of the basic functions of a computer. Without memory, a computer would not be able to function properly. 

In our latest blog article, the team at Tech Shack dives deeper into the different types of computer memory. Take a look! 

As stated above, computer memory is generally divided into primary and secondary memory. However, primary memory can actually be broken down into other types, such as the following: 

  • Cache Memory: Cache memory is more readily available to the processor than the computer’s main memory source. It’s also only a temporary storage area. 
  • RAM: This refers to the fact that any storage location can be accessed directly by the processor.
  • Dynamic RAM: Also referred to as “DRAM,” this is a type of semiconductor memory that is generally used by the data or program code required by a computer processor to function properly. 
  • Static RAM: Known as “SRAM,” this type of memory retains data bits for as long as power is supplied to it. SRAM differs from DRAM because it stores bits in cells consisting of a capacitor and a transistor, and it doesn’t have to be periodically refreshed.
  • Virtual Memory: This memory management technique allows secondary memory to be used as if it were a part of the main memory. Virtual memory uses both hardware and software to enable a computer to compensate for physical memory shortages by temporarily transferring data from RAM to disk storage.

As you can see, the discussion of computer memory can quickly become complex—and we haven’t even listed all of the different types! Therefore, if you’d like to learn more about computer memory or have questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
