5. In computing, a process is a running instance of
a program, including all variables and other state. A
modern computer system typically supports many

or processor is the portion of a computer system
that carries out the instructions of a computer
program, and is the primary element carrying out
the computer's functions.
7. An output device is any piece of computer
hardware equipment used to communicate the

an information processing system (such as
a computer) to the outside world.
9. A data storage device is a device for
recording (storing) information (data).
10. Magnetic storage and magnetic recording are terms
from engineering referring to the storage of data on
a magnetized medium.

11. Optical Storage Device
Optical storage is a term from engineering referring to the storage of
data on an optically readable medium. Data is recorded by making
marks in a pattern that can be read back with the aid of light.
CD-R DVD-R
12. A solid-state drive (SSD) is a data storage device that uses solid-
state memory to store persistent data. An SSD emulates a hard disk
drive interface, thus easily replacing it in most applications.
