Explain About Storage and RAM

StorageA PC certainly will not work if there is no storage media is inserted. Storage media such as hard disks, solid state disk, optical disk drives, and flash disk. Hard disks are very commonly used in a computer. This is due to the hard disk is now affordable. However, because it was affordable hard disk, you must be keen in buying. A 80 GB hard disk sizes are now priced more than three hundred thousand dollars. However, with the added money is less than one hundred thousand dollars, you can get a capacity four times greater. Even so, adjust your needs with prices offered by each manufacturer.

In addition to the hard disk, there is another major storage media that can be chosen, namely Solid State Disk. Solid state disk has a much faster speed,
however the price cannot be reached by the whole society. The price of a 40 GB SSD with a capacity of approximately U.S. $ 99. Therefore, you who want to build a computer with high performance, the SSD can be your consideration.

The use of optical drives are also commonly used. Currently, BluRay has emerged and has a high compatibility, but still have a more expensive price. Conversely, the CD drive is starting to affordable, but limited functionality. On the other hand, the DVD drive prices have started to come down and have compatibility with CD media. If you have sufficient funds, a DVD Writer can be an option. These drives can read and write data into a CD or DVD media. The price of this drive did not reach three hundred thousand dollars. In addition to internal storage, there's more storage media that you can take away. Those devices such as external hard drives, external optical disc drive and flash disk. Although this option is optional, the devices are generally used when you want to carry your data anywhere. CHIP recommend that you bring a flash drive if you need to bring the data is not too large. If you are carrying large data, an external hard disk can become a choice. If you are a photographer who often provide demos or video images, an external optical drive to complement your needs.

RAM
The greater the RAM you are using course the better the performance of a computer. There is now circulating a variety of memory types, ranging from DDR, DDR2, and DDR3. DDR first series is past its time, while the DDR2 is still widely used. Even so, the future is in DDR3. The price of a DDR3 is the same as DDR2. In other words, DDR3 is affordable to use. Performance has to offer DDR3 better than DDR2 and DDR also the first generation.

By using a motherboard that has DDR3 slots will be easier for you if in the future you want to upgrade your memory. In addition, the current memory is divided into two parts, value and high performance. For the overclockers, high performance memory series will provide more value, because its performance can be inflated even higher with overclocking techniques, although this type of memory standard of performance was usually better than the version value. In addition, this type of memory will also be wrapped with a heat spreader to keep the temperature at over-clocked memory. However, if you have funds that are not too large, the version value is good enough for everyday use at work or play in the game.
