- Free RAM:
- The amount of RAM never been used
- Cached RAM:
- The amount of RAM ever been used to load programmes, but OS doesn't want to free them, OS keeps them to avoid loading programmes from disk again.
- When free RAM is not available, OS will throw away some of the Cache RAM to make free space for allocation.
- Used RAM:
- The amount of RAM allocated to programmes, can't be used for other ones.
