qualifies a memory which retrieves, when it is powered on, the state that it had when it was powered off; EPROM and FLASH memories, floppy and hard disks, and magnetic tapes, are examples of non-volatile memories
Describes a storage medium that retains its contents when the power is shut off.
Said of memory chips that do not lose their contents when the power is switched off. See Volatile, EEPROM, Flash Memory, FeRAM.
Storage ( hard disk, cd-rom, tape, floppy, etc.) that does not change when the power is turned off, unlike volatile storage that is erased when the power is off.
Storage location or memory that retain their values after power-off or a TPM_Init function.
Property of physical storage medium that retains data written to it for a subsequent read operation through a power-on condition. An example of this is Flash memory that stores data without need for device power.
A description particularly applied to hormone weedkillers, to denote that the product does not give off volatile fumes. This term is scientifically inaccurate, as all chemicals have some measure of volatility, though often it is so low as to be negligible. The correct term is "low-volatile".
Information that will remain usable by a computer despite loss of power or shutdown.
Type of RAM that can hold data as long as it is powered.
Type of memory that keep data when power is turned off. These memories include Flash, ROM and EEPROM.
