Which type of volatile RAM is faster?

A. DRAM (Dynamic RAM)
B. SRAM (Static RAM)
C. EPROM
D. None of these
Correct Answer: B. SRAM (Static RAM)

Correct answer: SRAM (Static RAM). SRAM (Static RAM) is faster than DRAM and is used for cache memory.

Background: Both SRAM and DRAM lose data when the power is off.

  • DRAM (Dynamic RAM): DRAM is slower because it needs constant refreshing.
  • EPROM: EPROM is a type of ROM, not volatile RAM.
  • None of these: “None of these” is incorrect because SRAM is correct.

Did you know? SRAM is more expensive than DRAM.

Memory trick: S = Speed (SRAM).
