Random Access Memory is a form of computer data storage that allows data to be read from or written to in roughly the same amount of time, regardless of the physical location of the data within the memory. It is a volatile memory, meaning it loses its stored information when the power is turned off. RAM serves as the primary working memory for a computer's central processing unit.
