Computer memory prices are climbing faster than gold, creating a global crisis that threatens to make technology significantly more expensive for consumers. DRAM prices have skyrocketed by 171.8% over ...

Memory, once the cheapest part of a PC or smartphone, is rapidly becoming one of the most expensive components. Since ...

After studying most of its servers for more than two years, Google finds memory failures are much more common than expected, and debunks some other myths, too. Stephen Shankland worked at CNET from ...

*160 terabytes … that’s the size of the world’s current largest single–memory computing system. Bearing in mind that a terabyte is equal to 1000 gigabytes, it’s unimaginable that such a computer ...

At its simplest, RAM (Random Access Memory) is a type of computer memory, often referred to as short-term memory because it is volatile, meaning that the data is not saved when the power is turned off ...

Like peanut butter and jelly, like salt and pepper, like that seemingly perfect couple you love (to hate), the two dominant types of computer memory truly complete one another. Read-only memory (ROM) ...

The type of memory a computer uses varies depending on the make, model and form factor of the motherboard -- your PC won't recognize just any kind of RAM. Modules developed for desktop computers, for ...

The Spectre and Meltdown vulnerabilities in 2018 exposed computer memory as an easy target for hackers to inject malicious code and steal data. The aftermath spurred the adoption of memory-safe chips ...

Researchers have developed a new device that represents a significant advance for computer memory, making large-scale "server farms" more energy efficient and allowing computers to start more quickly.

Researchers at Purdue University are developing a new type of computer memory that they claim could be faster than SRAM and use 99 percent less energy than flash memory. Called FeTRAM, for ...
