I am new to linux. May I know how can I check DRAM and memory storage in linux? Thank you.

CodePudding user response：

DRAM expands to Dynamic Random Access Memory. It makes use of memory cells consisting of capacitor and transistor to store each bit of data. The capacitor is either charged or discharged. 0 and 1 are respectively used to represent these. The charge on the capacitor leaks gradually and hence a periodic refresh is needed which rewrites the data back to the capacitors.

It is typically used in the main memory of the computer.

DRAM is categorized as volatile memory as it loses data when the power supply to it is removed. It too has the property of data remanence (very limited). you can use code below to check the information of RAM:

cat /proc/meminfo 

also :

htop

for DRAM i think the command bellow could help you

sudo dmidecode
