Case Study II
The administration implemented the recommendations you provided in Case Study I to increase Mary’s and Ann’s satisfaction. They are both comfortable now with the technology and the work setting and are eager to become more involved with implementing technology on the unit. In fact, they have both been recommended to become

It manages both incoming and outgoing data.
b. Why is it important? (1 point) The processor is important because all other components in the computer serve the processor. As previously stated, it is the brain of the computer.
c. How much speed does this processor have? (1 point) The speed of the processor I selected is 2.5 GHz.
o How much RAM does it have?
a. What is RAM? (1 point) According to our book RAM or random-access memory is a volatile, temporary storage system. It allows the processor to access program codes and data while working on a task. RAM is lost when the computer is shut down, loses power or is rebooted.
b. Why is it important to know this feature and the available options when choosing this device for multimedia purposes? (1 point) It is important to know this feature because this is the most common type of memory on a computer. By knowing the features and available options you can determine the best RAM for your computer needs. There are several different types, sizes and speed.
c. What type of RAM does it have? (1 point) The computer I selected has 16 GB DDR3L of RAM. The DDR3L means that it has a dual voltage memory. It generates a lower voltage then other types, which means less heat, which will lengthen the life of the computer.
o What is the size of the hard drive? (1 point) The hard drive is 512 GB
a. What is a hard drive? (1 point) A hard drive is a permanent storage area. It stores data, information,
shows the path-worth values ordered from the largest to the lowest. This graph illustrates our previous remarks. At glance, we can spot that Price $199 has high preference for consumers and processor speed 2.0 GHz and 2.5 GHz are close to each other. Regarding RAM 8 Gb, it has low perception and the difference between 16Gb and 32 Gb is not substantial.
Running on an Intel Premium Dual Core G3420T processor, the ProDesk 600 G1 can run up to 2.7 GHz of data, especially with the aid of its 4 GB DDR3 SDRAM, at speeds of 1600 MHz. With this much power running your system, you can easily launch and access your apps and data at quick and consistent rates. Store your important data and files in the desktop’s 500 GB internal hard drive, which uses 7200 rpm disks for additional speed. Intel HD Graphics 2500 provides competitive graphic processing for multimedia tasks.
CPU : This is the central processing unit, better known as the processor. This is the heart of the PC where calculations are madeRAM: RAM stands for random access memory. This part in the PC grabs the file from the hard drive and stores on its non permanent memory so that you can have multiple windows open such as word and be able to access this data faster. The more RAM the faster and more apps you can open and the bigger the files the ram can hold. However, if you are using word and your pc crashes and you haven’t saved the file to the hard drive. The work that you have done will be lost due to that RAM does not hold on to files. GPU(Graphics card): The graphics
RAM (Random Accesses Memory): RAM is used by CPU when a computer is running to store the information that it needs to be used very quickly but it does not store any information permanently.
Random Access Memory (RAM) - the storage of data and instructions inside the primary storage is temporary. It disappears from the RAM as soon as the power to the computer is
Hard Disk is a non-volatile data storage device that is used to store and retrieve digital information using platters (rotating disks).
RAM: RAM stands for Random Access Memory. It is a bit like a person's short-term memory. RAM is volatile so data only exists only when the computer is turned on, and is used by the operating system and other applications.
Copious amounts of RAM accommodates many applications to run concurrently, or allocation for use as a high speed RAM disk. While smaller computing environments can function with 8GB or less, servers benefit from otherwise excessive volumes. The Xeon line supports ECC RAM to ensure integrity of data and quality of service to clients large and small.
What is a swap file? How does the computer use this file? What information might be found there?
Meet the Lenovo ThinkCentre M700. It is an ultra-small form factor desktop that features the latest processors with better performance over previous generations. Thanks to the Intel Core i5 (6th generation) 6500T quad-core processor that runs at 2.5 GHz (maximum of 3.1 GHz through Hyper-Threading Technology and Intel Turbo Boost Technology), the Lenovo M700 Core i5 mini PC is able to deliver reliable processing speeds that lets you do – from the computer basics up to the intensive tasks – all your work with the reliable, enterprise-level performance that you need. To support the system’s speed and responsiveness, this mini computer has 8 GB worth of RAM (which is upgradeable to 32 GB maximum) to ensure faster operation so you can finish your
Your hard drives are what store all of your data, ranging from your operating system to your documents, music, and movies. If the RAM is your computer's short-term memory, your hard drive is the long-term memory. It stores the things you want to keep around for a while.
When building a pc, one needs to consider what they are going to use the PC for. For a college student, some uses of a desktop pc could consist of gaming, video editing, and running software. All three of these rely on each part of the computer to perform the task. One component used heavily in all three of the tasks is the CPU (Central Processing Unit). The CPU is a piece of computer hardware that
Memory management exists in programs and applications, hardware, and in the Operating System (OS). In the Operating System, the OS goes to the hard drive, finding the piece of file or specific memory blocks, and then copies it into the RAM. The CPU is then able to access it. The OS must find a location in the RAM where it is not being used by anything else when it copies it from the hard drive.
ABSTRACT: The DRAM have one transistor and capacitor. The information is stored as a charge in the capacitor. SRAM is used in workstations, internal CPU caches, personal computers, routers, hard disk buffers, etc. Flash RAM is a non-volatile semiconductor memory device which stores data even when there is no electric power.
The more space you have the more files you can save, such as pictures, music, movies, etc.
