The CPU controls all tasks inside the computer from basic to complex. RAM is temporary storage for active programs and data, flash memory can be deleted and reprogrammed in blocks, and ROM permanently stores data that can only be read. Adapter cards allow communication between computers and peripheral devices. The network topology determines available functions and resilience to failures. Storage devices like hard drives store and read information for the operating system, apps, and user files. Partitioning divides hard disks to create groups for multiple operating systems.
2. Processors (CPU)
A CPU is like the brain of your computer, it controls
everything that goes on inside your computer from
the most basic tasks to the more complicated
aspects.
3. Memory
RAM (Random Access Memory):
This is the area of temporary storage for applications, the operating
system and other bits of data being used, this is for easier access.
Flash memory (Card):
A type of memory that can be deleted and reprogrammed, the units
for this memory is blocks.
ROM (Read Only Memory):
This is memory that once data has written onto the chip it cannot be
removed only read.
5. Adapter Cards
Ex:
A printer circuit card is
needed to connect a printer.
An adapter card is required
to allow the computer to
communicate with the
peripheral device of your
choice.
6. BUS Topology
The topology the network uses
controls what functions are
available. Also how the
network reacts to set backs.
7. Processor (Central Processing Unit)
The CPU is like the brain of the
computer and near enough any
task gets sent to the CPU from
the more basic commands to
the more technical 1s.
8. Storage Devices
This is a piece of hardware that can store and read
information, 1 of the main types of storage devices is a
hard drive. The computers primary hard drives are the
operating system, application and folders and files for the
users of the computer. Can be used with nearly any
energy. Input and output devices are also very popular
storage devices.
