  1. Read Only Memory (ROM) and Solid State Memory (SSM) Sam Hatala Michael Marrero Solid State Memory is like a combination of both ROM and Random Access Memory (RAM). Similar to RAM, you can add, erase, and modify memory from a Solid State Memory (SSM) drive. SSD is similar to ROM in that when the device does not have power, information will still be stored. SSD is similar to a bank, where you can take money out of your account as well as add money. Also, the amount of money in your account is not erased when the bank is closed. Read Only Memory is memory that is built into a device that can only be read, not modified or removed. Read Only Memory, or ROM, is considered non-volatile memory because ROM will store information even when the device does not have power. Firmware, or permanent software, is stored in ROM (ex. Firewalls). Think of ROM as memories we store in our brain. We cannot erase our memories, nor can you completely modify them.
