  2. Definition of RAM • RAM(random-access memory) • A storage technology that allows you to read and write data as many times as needed • Is erased when a computer is shut down • Are not limited to memory chips

  3. Types of RAM • Main types of RAM • SDRAM(Synchronous DRAM)-started out running at 166 MHz • DDR(Double Data Rate SDRAM)-doubles the rate of data transfer of standard SDRAM • Rambus DRAM(RDRAM)-is a serial memory technology that arrived in three flavors, PC600, PC700, and PC800 • Other types • SDRAM DIMMS • EDO DRAM(Extended Data-Out Dynamic Random Access Memory) • DIMMS(dual in-line memory module) • RIMMS(Rambus in-line memory module) • SIMM(single in-line memory module)

  4. Ram Location • It is located in the motherboard RAM

  5. Amount of RAM a Computer Should Contain • If running Windows XP, Microsoft recommends 128MB as the minimum • If running Windows 95/98, need a bare minimum of 32MB, but works better with 64 MB • Windows NT/2000 needs at least 64MB, so that mean you will probably want 128 MB or more
