Where does swap space resides?

- ROM
- Disk
- On-chip Cache
CORRECT ANSWER : Disk
Discussion Board
Explanation-
Swap space in Linux is used when the amount of physical memory (RAM) is full. If the system needs more memory resources and the RAM is full, inactive pages in memory are moved to the swap space. While swap space can help machines with a small amount of RAM, it should not be considered a replacement for more RAM. Swap space is located on hard drives(Disk or any), which have a slower access time than physical memory.
