input power transformer, typically stepping it down to the
voltage required by the load. For safety.

HARD DRIVE

your digital content.
RAM

immediately accessible to programs; RAM is volatile memory, so stored

data is cleared when the computer powers off.

MOTHERBOARD

(CPU) and
other essential internal hardware and functions as the central hub
that all other
hardware components run through.
 CPU
