2.2.4 Storage
2.2.4.1 Explain types and function of : - primary stroge (RAM , ROM ) PRIMARY STORAGE IS KNOWN AS THE MAIN MEMORY OF A COMPUTER, INCLUDING RAM (RANDOM-ACCESS MEMORY) AND ROM (READ-ONLY MEMORY) IT IS AN INTERNAL MEMORY (INSIDE THE CPU) THAT CAN BE ACCESSED DIRECTLY BY THE PROCESSOR. FUNCTION OF RAM : RAM IS VOLATILE WHICH MEANS THE PROGRAMS AND DATA IN RAM ARE LOST WHEN THE COMPUTER IS POWERED OFF. A COMPUTER USES RAM TO HOLD TEMPORARY INSTRUCTIONS AND DATA NEEDED TO COMPLETE TASKS. THIS ENABLES THE COMPUTER'S CPU (CENTRAL PROCESSING UNIT) TO ACCESS INSTRUCTIONS AND DATA STORED IN THE MEMORY VERY QUICKLY. RAM STORES DATA DURING AND AFTER PROCESSING. FUNCTION OF ROM : ROM IS NON-VOLATILE. IT HOLDS THE PROGRAMS AND DATA WHEN THE COMPUTER IS POWERED OFF. PROGRAMS IN ROM HAVE BEEN PRE-RECORDED. IT CAN ONLY BE STORED BY THE MANUFACTURER; ONCE IT IS DONE, IT CANNOT BE CHANGED. MANY COMPLEX FUNCTIONS, SUCH AS START UP OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS, TRANSLATORS FOR HIGH-LEVEL LANGUAGES AND OPERATING SYSTEMS ARE PLACED IN ROM MEMORY. naselvam@gmail.com

FUNGSI RAM RAM ADALAH MERUAP DI MANA PROGRAM DAN DATA DI DALAM RAM AKAN HILANG APABILA PC DITUTUP. PC MENGGUNAKAN RAM UNTUK MEMEGANG SEMENTARA ARAHAN DAN DATA UNTUK MENYIAPKAN TUGASAN. INI MEMBOLEHKAN CPU KOMPUTER UNTUK MENCAPAI ARAHAN DAN DATA YANG TERSIMPAN DI DALAM MEMORI DENGAN CEPAT RAM MENYIMPAN DATA SEMASA DAN SELEPAS BERLAKUNYA PROSES. FUNGSI ROM ROM TIDAK MERUAP DI MANA MAKSUDNYA IA MEMEGANG DATA DAN PROGRAM WALAUPUN KOMPUTER DITUTUP DAN DIBUKA SEMULA PROGRAM DI DALAM ROM ADA PRA REKOD. IA HANAYA BOLEH DISIMPAN OLEH PEMBINA PROGRAM. APABILA IA DIBUAT MAKA IA TIDAK BOLEH DIUBAH BANYAK FUNGSI RUMIT SEPERTI MEMBUKA ARAHAN OPERASI, ALAT PENUKARAN BAHASA ARAS TINGGI DAN SISTEM OPERASI ADALAH TERLETAK DI DALAM ROM.

2.2.4 Storage
2.2.4.2 Explain types and function of : - secondary stroge (Magnetic and optical medium AND Flash memory ) SECONDARY STORAGE IS ANOTHER ALTERNATIVE STORAGE TO KEEP YOUR WORK AND DOCUMENTS. IT IS VERY USEFUL TO STORE PROGRAMS AND DATA FOR FUTURE USE. SIMPANAN KEDUA ADALAH SATU LAGI SIMPANAN ALTERNATIF YANG MENYIMPAN KERJA DAN DOKUMEN. SANGAT BERGUNA UNTUK MENYIMPAN PROGRAM BAGI MASA DEPAN 1. MAGNETIC MEDIUM / MEDIUM MAGNETIK IS A NON-VOLATILE STORAGE MEDIUM. IT CAN BE ANY TYPE OF STORAGE MEDIUM THAT UTILIZES MAGNETIC PATTERNS TO REPRESENT INFORMATION. THE DEVICES USE DISKS THAT ARE COATED WITH MAGNETICALLY SENSITIVE MATERIAL. THE EXAMPLES OF MAGNETIC STORAGE ARE: MAGNETIC DISK SUCH AS: A FLOPPY DISK, USED FOR OFF-LINE STORAGE HARD DISK, USED FOR SECONDARY STORAGE MAGNETIC TAPE; INCLUDING VIDEO CASSETTE, AUDIO STORAGE REEL-TO- OPTICAL MEDIUM IS A NON-VOLATILE STORAGE MEDIA THAT HOLDS CONTENT IN DIGITAL FORM THAT ARE WRITTEN AND READ BY A LASER. THESE MEDIA INCLUDE VARIOUS TYPES OF CDS AND DVDS. MERUPAKAN SIMPANAN TIDAK MERUAP. IA BOLEH JADI PELBAGAI JENIS BERBENTUK MAGNETIK UNTUK MEMPERSEMBAHAKAN MAKLUMAT. PERANTI MENGGUNAKAN CAKERA YANG DISALUT BAHAN SENSITIF BERMAGNET CONTOH SIMPANAN MAGNETIK ADALAH CAKERA MAGNETIK SEPERTI (DISKET/CAKERA KERAAS TAPE MAGNETIK TERMASUKLAH VIDEO KASET DAN SEBAGAINYA. . naselvam@gmail.com

2.2.4 Storage
2.2.4.2 Explain types and function of : - secondary stroge (Magnetic and optical medium AND Flash memory ) 2. OPTICAL MEDIUM / MEDIUM OPTIK THESE FOLLOWING FORMS ARE OFTEN COMMONLY USED : CD, CD-ROM, AND DVD: READ ONLY STORAGE, USED FOR DISTRIBUTION OF DIGITAL INFORMATION SUCH AS MUSIC, VIDEO AND COMPUTER PROGRAMS. CD-R: WRITE ONCE STORAGE, THE DATA CANNOT BE ERASED OR WRITTEN OVER ONCE IT IS SAVED. CD-RW, DVD-RW, AND DVD-RAM: SLOW TO WRITE BUT FAST READING STORAGE; IT ALLOWS DATA THAT HAVE BEEN SAVED TO BE ERASED AND REWRITTEN. REEL TAPE AND OTHERS. BEBERAPA PENDEKATAN SERING DIGUNAKAN SEPERTI: CD: SIMPANAN BACA SAHAJA DIGUNAKAN UNTUK MEMPERSEMBAHKAN MAKLUMAT DIGITAL SEPERTI MUZIK, VIDEO DAN PROGRAM KOMPUTER - CD-R: SIMPANAN TULIS SAHAJA. DATA TIDAK BOLEH DIPADAM ATAU DITULIS SEMULA - CD-RW, DVD- RW DAN DVD-RAM: LAMBAT DITULIS TETAPI CEPAT DIBACA SEMULA. IA MEMBENARKAN DATA DISIMPAN, DIPADAM DAN DITULIS SEMULA - TAPE GELENDONG DAN SEBAGAINYA - DVD=Digital Versatile Disc naselvam@gmail.com

2.2.4 Storage
2.2.4.2 Explain types and function of : - secondary stroge (Magnetic and optical medium AND Flash memory ) 3. FLASH MEMORY FLASH MEMORY IS A SOLID-STATE, NON-VOLATILE, REWRITABLE MEMORY THAT FUNCTIONS LIKE RAM AND A HARD DISK DRIVE COMBINED. FLASH MEMORY STORE BITS OF ELECTRONIC DATA IN MEMORY CELLS JUST LIKE DRAM (DYNAMIC RAM), BUT IT ALSO WORKS LIKE A HARD DISK DRIVE THAT WHEN THE POWER IS TURNED OFF, THE DATA REMAINS IN THE MEMORY. FLASH MEMORY CARDS AND FLASH MEMORY STICKS ARE EXAMPLES OF FLASH MEMORY MEMORI FLASH SANGAT JELAS, TIDAK MERUAP, MEMORY BOLH BACA,TULIS DAN TULIS SEMULA YANG BERFUNGSI SEPERTI RAM DAN CAKERA KERAS. MEMEORI FLASH MENYIMPAN BITS DARIPADA DATA ELEKTRONIL DI DALAM SEL MEMORI SAMA SEPERTI DRAM(DYNAMIC RAM). MALAH IA JUGA BEKERJA SEPERTI CAKERA KERAS DI MANA WALAUPUN PC DITUTUP DAN DIBUKA SEMULA, DATA KEKAL DALAM MEMORI. KAD MEMORI FLASH DAN KAYU MEMORI FLASH ADALAH CONTOH-CONTOH MEMORI FLASH. naselvam@gmail.com

OPERATING SYSTEM OS on different platform : Linux is a freely distributed UNIX, it is a compatible operating system for PCs and a number of other processors. Mac OS X is a multitasking operating system that is the latest version of the Macintosh operating system. UNIX is an operating system, or family of operating systems, developed at Bell Laboratories in early 1970sas a replacement for an earlier system called Multics. Windows XP is the latest version of the Windows operating system, which is Microsofts fastest, most reliable Windows operating system.
