A computer's memory has two main parts. The hard drive is responsible for permanent and long-term memory. The RAM (random access memory) is the computer's short-term or temporary memory, often used to store programs while they're running. The information stored in RAM may or may not be saved permanently, depending on its need.

RAM (random access memory) is the place in a computing device where the operating system (OS), application programs and data in current use are kept so they can be quickly reached by the device's processor.
