What if I run out of disk space or need more RAM?

VirtualServers.CO.ZA - Affordable Virtual Servers
More disk space can be added to your server at anytime, provided that the main machine still has available disk space. At times our servers are physically maxed out to their limits and no more disk space can be added. A solution to this would be to move your virtual server to a new machine, with more resources free. We never overload our CPU's but disk space is one thing that we cannot guarantee as always available on the same machine. A server move due to an upgrade is done for free.

Your laptop comes with 2048MB, or 2GB, of RAM in one slot. This amount of RAM is usually adequate for most students in their undergraduate studies. However, the laptop can be upgraded to a maximum of 4096MB, or 4GB, of RAM.

What Is Random Access Memory (RAM)?

PC Basics
RAM is distinguished from ROM, which is read-only memory. The more RAM you have the more your computer can do at one time. RAM is volatile memory.

Save your work frequently.

What is the difference between RAM and ARCHIVE memory?

Calculator Software .co.uk - Frequently Asked Questions
RAM (standing for Random Access Memory) memory is about 24 kilobytes in size and is where programs that you want to run need to be. Also stored in RAM are lists, matrices, functions, etc. ARCHIVE memory is separate from RAM and is where programs and applications are stored when they are not being used. If any data is in Archive memory, then typically it cannot be used, only stored there - it always has to be unarchived first to use it. GROUPS are always stored in archive memory.
