    The ram is cleared. RAM is temporary. HDD is permanent.

    All data in RAM is transferred to the hard drive then the PC Switches off

    The project you are working on will be deleted if you don’t save it so save it before you turn the computer off.

    Memory that requires power to maintain the data is “Volatile Memory”.

    There are several types of volatile memory in most modern computers but the type you are probably most familiar with is RAM.
