To find which of the given statements is correct.
Expert Solution & Answer
Program Description Answer
b. Volatile storage is lost when a computer loses power.
Explanation of Solution
Explanation:
Volatile Storage:
Volatile storage, also known as volatile memory, refers to computer memory that requires a constant power source to maintain its contents. When a computer loses power, the contents of volatile storage are lost. Examples of volatile storage include RAM (Random Access Memory) and cache memory.
Non-volatile Storage:
In contrast, non-volatile storage, such as hard disk drives (HDD) and solid-state drives (SSD), retains its data even when the power is turned off. This is because non-volatile storage uses permanent storage media to store data, such as magnetic disks or flash memory. It is important to understand the difference between volatile and non-volatile storage, as volatile storage is used for the temporary storage of data that is being actively processed by the computer, while non-volatile storage is used for long-term storage of data that needs to be retained even after the power is turned off.
Conclusion:
Hence, the correct option is option (b).
