Answer:

D. RAM is volatile, which means that it must be handheld with care when removed or replaced. A hard disk is not volatile, which means that it is much more resistant to movement during removal or replacement.

Explanation:

Most RAM (random access memory) used for primary storage in personal computers is volatile memory. Volatile memory contrasts with non-volatile memory, which does not lose content when power is lost. Non-volatile memory has a continuous source of power and does not need to have its memory content periodically refreshed.
