BEPROM

CROM M

DRAM

Answer:

A. EEPROM

Read Explanation:

EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory) is the correct answer.

A Pen drive (or USB Flash Drive) uses Flash Memory, which is a specific type of EEPROM.

Here is why:

  • EEPROM: Data can be erased and rewritten electrically in blocks, allowing flash memory inside pen drives to quickly store, update, and retain data even when powered off (non-volatile).

  • EPROM: Requires exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light to erase its contents, which is slow and not practical for everyday portable drives.

  • ROM: Read-Only Memory cannot be easily altered or rewritten by normal user operations.

  • RAM: Volatile memory that loses all its data as soon as the power is turned off.
