What is RAM?
RAM (Random Access Memory) is different to the permanent storage provided by hard disk drives (HDD), solid state drives (SSD) or memory cards in your equipment. RAM is used by your device to temporarily store data to carry out everyday operations. The more RAM your machine has, the faster you can expect it to open and run programs.
This device has 8GB RAM.
Solid State Drive
The Solid State Drive (SSD) in this computer gives you capacity to store your documents and media, while ensuring speedy and dependable access to your files and programs. SSDs are much faster than regular hard drives and don't use moving parts to work, making them more reliable and quieter.
Magic Keyboard
Created to provide a comfortable and stable key feel, Apple’s Magic Keyboard features pre-programmed shortcuts, and useful features that are even easier to access. You can receive assistance from Siri, switch keyboard languages, respond with the perfect emoji, or find documents with Spotlight. Additionally, there’s a backlit option – an ambient light sensor will help you type in low?light settings.
Touch ID
A dedicated Touch ID button lets you unlock your MacBook Air with a single touch of a finger or access things like secure documents or system settings without having to re-enter your password. It also allows you to use Apple Pay to make secure online payments without too much hassle.
