  3. Magnetic memory :-   (i) HDD( hard disc drive). (ii) DAT (Digital audio type. (iii) Floppy disc ,etc.
  • Semi- conduction memory:– This memory made by semi- conductor devices ( transistor, diode etc). Semi- conductor memory divided into two parts:-
  1. Volatile memory:– Volatile memory is that when the power is turn off, data is vanish out. Ex :- RAM.
  2. Non- Volatile memory :- A Non- Volatile memory data is reminded started when the power is turn- off e.g. ROM.
  •  ROM can be classified:-
  1. P-ROM :- Programmable read only memory.
  2. E-PROM :- Erasble Programmable read only memory.
  3. EE-PROM :- Electrically Erasble Programmable read only memory.
  • RAM can be classified into two types:-
  1. SRAM :- Static Random access memory.
  2. DRAM :- Dynamic Random access memory.
  • Specification of DRM :-
  1. Type :- SIMM (Single intine memory module).
  2. DIMM :- (Dual intine memory module).
  • Operating Voltage.
  • Speed of Ram.
  • No.of cuts.
  • No.of pins.
  1. Types of DRAM :-
  • SD-RAM :- Synchronous dynamic random access memory.
  • DDR :- Double data rate.
  • RD-RAM :- Rambus dynamic random access memory.
