Across
- 1. malicious software [malware] designed to damage and corrupt, or steal info from computers and networks by replicating itself
- 2. storing, organizing, and retrieving files on hard disk drives (HDDs) and solid-state drives (SSDs)
- 4. data storage in system that contains only flash memory or solid state drives
- 5. provides temporary storage for short term data
- 7. manages and coordinates computers operations by interpretation instructions, directing data flow, generating signals to control other hardware
- 8. retains data without power, stores essential and permanent instruction and data
- 11. used in computing to improve data storage reliability and performance across multiple drives
- 14. a text based system where users interact with software solely by typing commands via a key board
- 15. Foundational digital circuit that performs all mathematical equations/subtraction and addition
- 17. interprets and executes instruction from hardware and software
- 19. high-speed data storage devices to provide fast, durable, and energy-efficient, non-volatile storage for operating systems, applications, and data, replacing traditional hard disk drives
Down
- 1. connects computers, and electronics to monitors
- 3. a computer bus interface that connects host bus adapters (like those on motherboards) to mass storage devices
- 6. acts as a CPU, which functions as the brain as the computers semi conductor that fetches, examines, decodes, and executes program instructions[type of CPU]
- 9. Mini integrated network interface (Provides space convinced devices[computer, phones] with high speed reliable network connectivity without requiring full size heavy expansion card
- 10. toring digital data in early mobile phones, digital cameras, MP3 players, and PDAs, acting as a compact, removable, and rewritable storage medium) portable lower power devices used as flash memory drive
- 12. interface for connecting storage devices like hard drives to computers
- 13. expansion card or integrated circuit that connect copmuter/device to a network enabling wired(ethernet) and or wireless[wifi] communication
- 16. flat-panel visual displays in a wide range of electronic devices, chosen for its ability to produce sharp, vibrant images while being thin, lightweight, and energy-efficient
- 18. connects computers, devices, and electronics for data transmission between devices
