Solid State Drive (SSD)
                 An SSD is a type of storage device that holds information, like your pictures,

                 games, and documents. An SSD uses the technique of flash memory to store
                 data. It is much faster than a hard disk. SSDs are more durable and reliable                SSD
                 than hard disks. They come in various capacities, typically 128 GB to several
                 TBs. Nowadays,  desktop  computers  and  laptops  come  with  SSD instead  of traditional
                 hard disk.

                           ONLINE STORAGE (CLOUD STORAGE)

                 We  can also  store  data  on  various  online  platforms  that  allow online
                 storage, file sharing and syncing. It allows us to store data in an off-site
                 location which can be accessed later on any computer anywhere through
                 the Internet. If we store data in cloud storage, we can save money that                  Onedrive
                 would otherwise have to be invested in paying for storage devices.

                      #Data: A fact or figure that stored in the computer

                      #RAM: A temporary memory




                                   Suppose,  you could  create  a virtual memory  palace  in your  mind  using  a
                                   computer. What rooms and objects would you include to help you remember
                                   important information, like math formulas or historical facts?

                   ▶   A computer stores data, instructions, and information inside a memory, which is called computer
                     memory.
                   ▶   There are two types of memory available: primary memory and secondary memory.
                   ▶   Primary memory is the main memory from which the CPU can access data directly.
                   ▶   RAM is a temporary memory and ROM is a permanent memory.
                   ▶   Secondary memory is used to store large amounts of data permanently.
                   ▶  The basic unit for measuring the memory of a computer is byte.
