 The PC Technology Guide
The system memory is the place where the computer holds current programs and data that are in use, and, because of the demands made by increasingly powerful software, system memory requirements have been accelerating at an alarming pace over the last few years.
One solution is to use "cache memory" between the main memory and the processor, and use clever electronics to ensure that the data the processor needs next is already in cache.
With a large amount of memory, the difference in time between a register access and a memory access is very great, and this has resulted in extra layers of "cache" in the storage hierarchy.

 RAM (Random Access Memory)
Simply stated, Random Access Memory is a name applied to microchips designed to store and address information while a computer is actually using it.
RAM is volatile, which means that it needs a constant current in order for it to retain information.
It is primarily used for memory caching (such as on processor chips).

 random-access memory definition of random-access memory in computing dictionary - by the Free Online Dictionary, ...
Furthermore, memory referred to as RAM can usually be read and written equally quickly (approximately), in contrast to the various kinds of programmable read-only memory.
This is in contrast to, say, a magnetic disk, magnetic tape or a mercury delay line where it is very much quicker to access data sequentially because accessing a non-sequential location requires physical movement of the storage medium rather than just electronic switching.
Most kinds of semiconductor read-only memory (ROM) are actually "random access" in the above sense but are never referred to as RAM.

 Nanotube nonvolatile addressable memory - Nanodot
The authors' memory array design has two perpendicular arrays of nanotubes, one array above the other, with a crossbar of memory devices formed by their intersections.
This does seem like a good candidate for a molecular memory device, but as with all such proposed devices, assembly is the biggest hurdle.
The authors consider the ideal solution to be using contacts between metallic nanotubes in one layer with semiconducting nanotubes in the other to effectively form Schottky diodes at each memory element.
