What are the Difference between ram and CD?

RAM (Random Access Memory) is a type of volatile memory used by computers to store data temporarily while programs are running, allowing for quick access and processing. In contrast, a CD (Compact Disc) is a physical medium used for long-term data storage, typically containing music, software, or other files, and is read by a CD drive. While RAM enables fast read and write operations, it loses its data when power is turned off, whereas a CD retains data without power but has slower access speeds.
