The correct answer is buffer.
A buffer is a small, fast memory area that temporarily holds data and has lower access time than the main working store (core memory) of the processor.
Core memory → standard main memory using magnetic cores.
Fast core → sometimes used to describe faster core memory, but the standard term for temporary, faster memory is buffer.
Address register → holds addresses, not used as a fast storage area.
So, the correct answer is buffer.
