Sony PCG-FX170 Ram
Your laptop RAM stores pieces of information that the central processing unit uses for programs. Due to the fact that RAM is temporary storage for the processor, it does not have the ability to store files such as programs or emails. Instead, it has more to do with the speed of your laptop. RAM is actually volatile memory as its storage is deleted every time you turn your laptop off. Your laptop will not boot without having RAM. The clock speed of the RAM is dictated by the specs of the motherboard, while the actual storage size is guided by the operating system. If there is ever a doubt, just know that it is impossible to have too much RAM!
