The Hard DriveApplications and data are stored here.It is a non‐volatile form of memory.
The type of cable that is made of glass that
data travels through as light.
The type of cable that is made of glass that
data travels through as light.
Fiber OpticBecause the signal is light, it never degrades.
The name of the component that all of the major internal
components in a computer are welded and connected to.

Mother Board or Circuit Board
The type of cable that transmits data over fairly short distances because the signal can degrade. It is made of two copper wires
interwoven together covered with plastic. It looks like a phone chord.

Non‐Volatile
The name of the network wire that is made out copper. It is a medium range cable in that
signals on it will degrade more than on a fiber optic but less than on a twisted pair.
