What term describes the situation where computer memory loses its data upon removal of power?
A hard disk drive (HDD) is a type of non-volatile storage device that retains data even when power is removed from the computer. It is used for long-term storage of files and programs.
Read-only memory (ROM) is a type of non-volatile memory that retains its contents even when the power is turned off. It typically stores firmware or permanent system instructions that are not meant to be modified.
Volatile memory loses its data when power is removed from the computer. This includes RAM (Random Access Memory), which the computer uses to temporarily store data and program instructions while the system is running.
Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory (EPROM) is a type of non-volatile memory that can be erased and reprogrammed using ultraviolet light. While EPROM can retain data when power is removed, it is not typically used for temporary storage during normal computer operation.
