First stale, your computer itself has 2 types of memory. Ram and Rom. Ram is the place where on earth your programs are loaded when you run them. Rom is the place where your programs are stored. When you run a program, the brain or processor loads the program from rom to knock against. A flash drive is nothing more than an electronic storage device that allows you to store files or facts on it. It isnt much different than the ram your PC uses excluding it keeps background stored until its erased. Ram in your PC however differs slightly, it will dump its memory contents to nouns a new program or when you shut down your PC.
a flash card is similar to waht you put in a camara (even the thumb drives) computer memory (hard drive ) is a moving disk Ram is approaching a flash drive, except it constantly refreshes itself
the memory (also call RAM ) in computer is intenal to the computer. computer cannot work minus it. its more expensive and faster.
flash drives are just portable devices you can use to copy information and move it around
Without getting into architecture differences, the main difference is one is volatile (system RAM) and the other is non volatile. The other difference is that system push can run at significantly higher speeds than flash memory. (at this time)
There are already laptops coming that will use flash for system memory and even sooner flash instead of complicated drives. This practice will increase as the price of flash continues to go down.
