Memory and storage preserve digital state at different points in a hierarchy.

supported

Caches exploit locality by keeping recently or nearby used blocks close to the CPU.

supported

Benchmark latency, cache-miss counters, memory maps, operating-system tools, and storage specifications reveal hierarchy behavior.
