Sony PCG-GR170 Ram
Random Access Memory, RAM, stores random bits of data that the central processing unit uses for applications. The speed of the RAM is governed by the specs of the motherboard, while the actual storage size is governed by the software. Due to the fact that RAM is temporary storage for the CPU, it does not hold files like picture or movies. But, it does have a correlation to the overall speed and quickness of your Sony. Random Access Memory is considered volatile memory as all the data it holds gets erased every time you turn your laptop off. Some RAM is mandatory even for the Sony PCG-GR170 to run. If you need to buy more RAM and are unsure, just know that it is impossible to have too much RAM!
