What Are the Benefits of Adding Memory to Laptops?
In a laptop, there are generally two parts that can be referred to as “memory.” One of these is called Random Access Memory, otherwise known as RAM. Random Access Memory works a lot like a person’s short-term memory; information is stored there while it is currently in use, and is transferred to what can be referred to as a computer’s “long-term” memory at the user’s request. This long-term memory is a computer’s hard drive, which is the second piece of hardware sometimes referred to as “memory.” Under most circumstances, both types of memory can provide major benefits if upgraded.
