Flash Memory vs RAM: What Do They Do?

What do flash memory and RAM really do? Let's find out!

RAM is significantly faster than a flash drive since it can handle 20-40GB/s. Although it’s more expensive than flash memory, it can handle short-term memory demands significantly better than flash memory is capable.

Which is faster RAM or flash drive?

It’s used to store data and information in the long-term, so any device that it’s used in can access the data again at a later date.

What is flash memory used for?

You can use flash memory in the form of a USB stick/flash drive as RAM to improve your computer’s memory and performance. It can take a little setup, but it’s very possible.

Can flash memory be used as RAM?

Flash memory is named after the fact that it can erase a semiconductor chip in a “flash”.

Why is it called flash memory?
