Memory & Storage: Crash Course Computer Science #19

Pre-order our minimal version Crash Course: Computer Science Floppy Coasters right here! https://store.dftba.com/products/computer-science-coasters
Today we’re going to map the background of these storage space modern technologies from strike cards, hold-up line memory, core memory, magnetic tape, and magnetic drums, to drooping disks, tough disk drives, cds, and strong state drives. Unpredictable memory, like RAM was much faster than these non-volatile storage space memories, however that difference is ending up being much less and much less real today.

Information composed to storage space, like your difficult drive, is a bit various, due to the fact that it will certainly still be there also if the power goes out – this is understood as non-volatile memory. Today we’re going to map the background of these storage space innovations from strike cards, hold-up line memory, core memory, magnetic tape, and magnetic drums, to saggy disks, difficult disk drives, cds, and strong state drives. Unstable memory, like RAM was much faster than these non-volatile storage space memories, however that difference is ending up being much less and much less real today.
