1. What is the difference between RAM and ROM?
RAM is volatile storage and is used to temporarily store data; while ROM is non-volatile storage, which can still save data after the device is turned off, and is usually used to store unchangeable data such as system startup programs.
-
2. What is the difference between cache and RAM?
Cache is a high-speed memory between the CPU and the main memory, which is used to temporarily store data and instructions commonly used by the CPU to speed up the system. RAM is the main storage of the system, which is used to store data for applications and operating systems.

3. How to choose the right memory type?
When choosing a memory type, you need to consider speed, capacity, durability and cost according to application requirements. For example, SSD is suitable for data that needs to be accessed quickly, HDD is suitable for large-capacity data storage, and RAM is suitable for high-speed computing.

4. What is the difference between SRAM and DRAM?
SRAM (static RAM) does not require periodic refreshes and is faster but more expensive; DRAM (dynamic RAM) requires periodic refreshes and has a higher storage density and is suitable for main memory.
