    the various types of memory found in modern computers".
    See section 3 of the module syllabus.

    Things to consider,

    • Advantages and disadvantages of the different memories/storage devices.
    • Differences in performance and specifications.
    • Speed, size, cost and capacity.
    • Future trends.
    • Differences in the construction.
    • How do they communicate with the processor?
    • Where are they located physically in relation to the processor/each other?

    Any1 know where I can get some good info for this, google let me down only really giving me a wikipleda result and other random stores, Solid facts descriptions would be nice

    Do your own homework :D

    Covered in detail in most A+ books and manuals. Not sure if you want someone to post the answers there or a path to more info.

    • Advantages and disadvantages of the different memories/storage devices. More is better :D
    • Differences in performance and specifications. AMD vs Intel when AMD were limited to certain speeds whilst Intel could cpus could use faster ram 400vs667.
    • Speed, size, cost and capacity. changes monthly, buy loads when its cheap sell it on adverts when its dear :)
    • Future trends. Intel and AMD heading towards using the same ram, so memory makes will continues to base the ram on what CPus can/will do.
    • Differences in the construction. Different types of ram to flash memory are made differently ;p
    • How do they communicate with the processor? http://www.acm.org/crossroads/xrds5-3/pmgap.html
    • Where are they located physically in relation to the processor/each other? to the right usually :D
