Everything about Non-volatile memory
Computer memory that does not lose its contents after being turned off
Non-volatile memory (NVM) or non-volatile storage is a type of computer memory that can retain stored information even after power is removed. In contrast, volatile memory needs constant power in order to retain data. Wikipedia →
