This is the hardware of a computer that is used to temporarily store the operating system, applications and data being utilized currently on a computer system. This temporary storage medium provides for faster retrieval of the information being utilized in order for it to be quickly processed. When a computer system runs out of system memory it may use the hard drive as a temporary buffer to transfer data back and forth into RAM, this usually causes the computer system to slow down.
