Computer memory stores information as a binary representation (1/0) so the smallest unit of storage is the single "bit". However, when talking about storage people find it more useful to use the term "Byte" which is a unit of 8 bits.
When talking about volumes of storage the convention is to then prefix the word "Byte" with the SI, metric nomenclature denoting magnitudes.
Kilo (1000) (kB)
Mega (1000000) (MB)
Giga (1000000000) (GB)
Tera (1000000000000) (TB)
Peta (1000000000000000) (PB)
Exa (1000000000000000000) (XB)
Zetta (1000000000000000000000) (ZB)
Yotta (1000000000000000000000000) (YB)

What characteristic of RAM memory makes it not suitable for permanent storage?
It could be used for storage. But that wouldn't make sense, since that space is dedicated to your operating systems memory... VMWare uses regular storage space as memory for all its Virtual Machines, 1 TB could equal 8 GB of Ram, and 992 GB of Storage, for example. Hope this helps.

What has more memory- 0.99 gb of ram or 512 MB ram?
Many people mistake storage space for memory. Storage space is usually on a hard drive and can be very large. It is measured in terabytes and gigabytes. 1000 gigabytes equals 1 terabyte. Memory is use by a computer to run programs and the operating system for the computer itself. This type of memory is usually called RAM or Random Access Memory. They are usually measured in gigabytes and megabytes. 1000 megabytes equals a gigabyte. Make sure you are comparing the correct type of "memory." Is it for storage or for running the computer? To take your question at face value, 0.99 gigabytes is much larger than 512 megabytes. 0.99 gb = 990000 mb, so 512 mb would be very small.
