Is RAM always volatile? I understand that computer memory in typical modern computing systems (such as the laptop I am asking this question from) is generally involatile but in some exceptions, such as RAM, the memory is indeed volatile.
Is RAM always volatile? Isn't there any &quot;exceptional&quot; kind of involatile RAM by humans somewhere?
Go 45 to 65 years back in time when RAM was “core memory” - tiny magnetic rings with wires threaded between them. Core memory was not volatile.
