Memory & Storage: Crash Course Computer Science #19
Season 1
Episode 19
So we’ve talked about computer memory a couple times in this series, but what we haven’t talked about is storage. Data written to storage, like your hard drive, is a little different, because it will still be there even if the power goes out - this is known as non-volatile memory.
