And no, I do not accept naming HD memory as RAM memory, for one thing: it is not directly addressable by the processor, thus it is not even "memory". Reading from HD requires a program, as it resides in a peripheral device. I call it "long term external storage space" ;-)

That's the case for modern computers, but back in the dark ages, some computers used a drum or disk for memory.
