High speed working {memory }, such as {RAM }, {ROM } or , in the

peripherals . The more modern term "device " is also more
general in that it is used for things such as a {pseudo -tty },
a {RAM drive }, or a {network adaptor }.
Some argue that , since the advent of the {personal computer },
the {motherboard }, {hard disk }, keyboard , mouse , and monitor
are all parts of the base system , and only use the term
"peripheral " for optional additional components .
