  1. 2. An input device that allows you to type letters, numbers, and symbols into your computer or other electronic device.
  2. 3. Drive A physical data storage device that stores digital information.
  3. 5. Allows devices to communicate with each other without cables or wires.
  4. 7. Cache A chip-based computer component that makes retrieving data from the computer's memory more efficient.
  5. 9. The primary component of a computer that acts as its “control center.”
  6. 12. Drive A semiconductor-based storage device, which typically uses NAND flash memory to save persistent data.
  7. 15. Devices An external device that connects to a computer to expand its capabilities.
  8. 16. A device that prints documents and images onto paper or other materials.
  9. 17. A small mobile manual device that controls movement of the cursor and selection of functions on a computer display.
  10. 18. (Random Access Memory) Random access memory (RAM) is the hardware in a computing device that provides temporary storage for the operating system (OS), software programs and any other data in current use so they're quickly available to the device's processor.

  1. 1. Memory) A type of computer memory that can only be read from, not written to.
  2. 4. A device that allows computers, smartphones, tablets, and other devices to connect to the internet.
  3. 6. A piece of output gear that connects to a computer to produce sound, and as a result, we can listen to the sound like an outcome.
  4. 7. An electronic device with a screen used for display (as of television pictures or computer information)
  5. 8. A device that connects two or more packet-switched networks or subnetworks.
  6. 10. The main printed circuit board (PCB) in a computer
  7. 11. A device that allows you to digitize physical documents, images, or even objects, and convert them into a digital format that can be viewed, edited, and stored on a computer.
  8. 13. Processing Unit) A specialized processor originally designed to accelerate graphics rendering.
  9. 14. memory A long-life and non-volatile storage chip that is widely used in embedded systems.
  10. 15. Supply Unit A hardware device that converts AC electricity into DC electricity and then distributes it to the rest of the computer.
