Why each option

Both RAM (Random Access Memory) and SSDs (Solid State Drives) are computer components used to store data, albeit for different purposes and durations.

AMotherboard

A motherboard is the main circuit board that connects all components but does not primarily store user data itself.

BRAMCorrect

RAM (Random Access Memory) is volatile memory used for short-term data storage, holding data that the CPU is actively using for quick access.

CCPU

A CPU (Central Processing Unit) processes data and executes instructions but does not store large amounts of user data long-term.

DGPU

A GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) is specialized for rendering graphics and typically has its own dedicated memory (VRAM) but is not a general-purpose data storage component.

ESSDCorrect

An SSD (Solid State Drive) is non-volatile storage that retains data even without power, used for long-term storage of the operating system, applications, and user files.
