B primary memory is located closer to the CPU
Primary memory, such as RAM, is directly connected to the CPU and is used for storing data that the CPU is actively processing. This close proximity enables faster data access and retrieval compared to secondary memory, such as hard drives or SSDs, which are connected to the CPU through buses or ports. Additionally, primary memory, being volatile, allows for much faster read and write operations compared to the non-volatile nature of secondary memory.
why is primary memory faster than secondary memory?
A primary memory has a faster clock speed
B primary memory is located closer to the CPU
C primary memory saves long-term data
D primary memory is larger than secondary memory
