Explanation
Data is not stored inside RAM for future retrieval because RAM (Random Access Memory) is a volatile memory as it does not store data and instructions permanently and loses its contents when the power is switched off or interrupted. Secondary memory, on the other hand, holds data permanently within the computer system, as it includes non-volatile storage.
