Flashmälutüübi

Flashmälutüübi refers to a type of non-volatile computer memory. It retains stored information even when not powered. This technology is a derivative of EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory). Flash memory is characterized by its ability to be erased and reprogrammed in blocks rather than byte by byte. This block-level erasure makes it significantly faster for writing and deleting data compared to older EEPROM technologies. There are two main types of flash memory: NOR flash and NAND flash. NOR flash offers faster read times and more direct random access to data, making it suitable for code execution. NAND flash, on the other hand, provides higher density and lower cost per bit, excelling in data storage applications. Common uses for flashmälutüübi include USB flash drives, solid-state drives (SSDs), memory cards for cameras and mobile devices, and the firmware storage in many electronic gadgets. Its durability, speed, and portability have made it a ubiquitous component in modern electronics.
