![RAM vs SSD vs Cache: What’s the Difference?
Your computer doesn’t store everything in one place. It uses different memory layers because some are faster than others.
Here’s what each one does:
→ SSD: Stores your files and apps for the long term.
→ RAM: Holds the apps and data you’re actively using.
→ CPU Cache & Registers: Keep frequently needed data close to the CPU for faster access.
→ GPU Memory: Holds AI models and the data they need to run.
→ KV Cache: Helps AI chatbots retain context during a conversation without recomputing everything from scratch.
The key idea?
Memory isn’t just about how much you can store. It’s about how quickly you can access the data you need.
