RAM, that means Random Access Memory, is a computer storage media that can be accessed considerably faster than a hard drive, because the info can be read randomly, skipping the bytes before the needed info is reached. On a hosting server, the RAM is used to load scripts and web programs once they are executed, so the more RAM you are able to use, the more programs you'll be able to run simultaneously and the more people shall be able to surf your sites without any effect on the site’s/server’s overall performance. Unlike a disk drive, however, the RAM is employed for temporary storage purposes, since the information is lost the moment the power is shut off. In case you use a shared web hosting account, the physical memory which your scripts can use may be limited and could change depending on what the some other clients on the same server use. Using a virtual or a dedicated hosting server, alternatively, you'll have a guaranteed amount of RAM that won't be used by others even if you don't use it at a particular time.
