Why does the amount of raminstalled affect boot time?
The amount of RAM installed can affect boot time because during boot-up, the operating system and applications are loaded into RAM. If there is not enough RAM to accommodate all the necessary files, the system may need to rely on slower storage devices, such as a hard drive, which can increase boot time significantly. More RAM allows for faster loading of files during boot-up, reducing the overall time it takes for the system to become fully functional.
