In general terms :
RAM = short term memory , ROM = Long term memory.
In Tecnical terms :
RAM = volatile type , ROM = non volatile type.
Usage:
RAM : used for storing frequently used data,applications
that are currently and frequently running are stored in
RAM.The dat a in RAM lost when power off.
ROM : For permanent storage.Data does't lost when the power
is off.
Reusage :
RAM : Data losts when power off,so easy reusable (volatile).
ROM : Can be reused by erasing or modifying the data by
electronically.
Why RAM instid of ROM :
Data retrieving method is faster in RAM than ROM.But RAM
costs more.
