A pure unprocessed rip of a CD will retain the volume data exactly as it was on the CD.

Some ripping programs may allow volume adjustment when ripping but that can be turned on or off, if even present.

And many of the programs for computer play of ripped music will allow for replay gain adjustment, but that is for playback only and doesn't permanently change the file itself.
