Swap memory

Solution:

The correct answer is Swap Memory.Swap Memory helps the computers operating system in pretending that it has more RAM than it actually has.Memory swapping is a memory reclamation method wherein memory contents not currently in use are swapped to a disk to make the memory available for other applications or processes.The exact state or "page" of memory is copied to the disk to make the data contiguous and easy to restore later. Enables an operating system to provide more memory to a running application or process than is available in physical random access memory (RAM).When the physical system memory is exhausted, the operating system can opt to make use of memory swapping techniques to get additional memory.Additional InformationMemory swapping works by making use of virtual memory and storage space in an approach that provides additional resources when required.In short, this additional memory enables the computer to run faster and crunch data better. Swapping is often enabled by default, though users can choose to disable the capability.
