Lecture 03

Introduction to the Personal computer- PIII


CT4005NI - Computer Hardware and Software Architectures
Lecture 03’s Objectives
•Describe internal components.
•Describe the concept of RAID and its type.
•Concept of Secondary Storage Devices.
•Ports and cables
•Input & Output Devices
3.1 Internal Components : Storage Drives

RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disk)

● RAID provides a way to store data across multiple hard disks for redundancy.
● To the operating system, RAID appears as one logical disk.
● Types: RAID (0-6), RAID 0/1.

Terms Used in RAID


Striping - A method used to write data across multiple drives.
Mirroring - A method of storingduplicate data to a second drive.
3.1 Storage drives : RAID 0

RAID 0 Array
3.1 Storage drives : RAID 1

RAID 1
Array
3.1 Storage drives : RAID 10

RAID 10
Array
3.1 Storage drives : RAID level 5 – Striping with parity

RAID 5 Array
• Requires at least 3 drives but can work
with up to 16
• Data blocks are striped across the drives
• Parity data: computer can recalculate
the data of one of the other data
blocks, should those data no longer be
available
• Withstand a single drive failure without
losing data or access to data
3.1 Storage drives : RAID level 6 – Striping with double parity

RAID 6 Array
• Like RAID 5, but the parity data are
written to two drives
• Requires at least 4 drives and can
withstand 2 drive’s failure
simultaneously
3.2 Storage drives : Optical Drive

●An optical drive is a storage device that uses


lasers to read data on the optical media.
●Types: CD (Compact Disc) (700 MB), DVD (Digital
versatile Disc) (4.3 OR 8.5 GB),
BD(Blu-ray Disc) (25 OR 50 GB).
●CD, DVD, and BD media can be pre-recorded
(read-only), recordable (write once), or re- recordable
(read and write multiple times).
Optical Media: DVD-ROM, DVD+/-R, DVD+/-RW
(likewise for CD and BD)
3.3 Storage drives : External Flash Drive
● An external flash drive, also known as a thumb drive,
is a removable storage device that connects to a USB
port.

● It uses the same type of non-volatile memory chips


as solid state drives and does not require power to
maintain the data.
3.4 Internal Components : Drive Interfaces & Cables
3.4.1 Types of Drive Interfaces
•Used to interface storage devices to
the motherboard.

IDE or PATA drive interface:


- 40 pins with 40 wires or 80 wires
- Speeds: 16MBps, 33MBps, 66MBps up to
133MBps
- Master and Slave configuration
3.4 Internal Components : Drive Interfaces & Cables
SATA drive interface:
- 7 pin data cable, 15 pin power cable
- Distinctive L shaped interface
- They are hot pluggable
- Speeds: 1.5Gbps, 3Gbps, 6Gbps and SATA Data Cable
16Gbps
- No master and slave configuration

SATA Power Cable


3.5 Ports & Cables
● Input/output (I/O) ports on a computer connect peripheral
devices, such as printers, scanners, and portable drives.

Serial (DB-9)
● Used to connect a serial device such as a modem and older
peripheral devices.
Modem Ports (RJ11)
● In addition to the serial cable used to connect an external
modem to a computer, a telephone cable is used to connect a
modem to a telephone outlet. This cable uses an RJ-11 connector.
3.5 Ports & Cables

USB Ports and Cables


● The Universal Serial Bus (USB) is a
standard interface that connects
peripheral devices to a computer.

● It was originally designed to


replace serial and parallel
connections.
3.5 Ports & Cables

FireWire (IEEE 1394) Ports and Cables

● FireWire is a high-speed, hot-swappable interface


that connects peripheral devices to a computer.

● Data rates can be supported up to supported up to


3.2 Gbps over a 100m distance.
3.5 Ports & Cables
Network Ports and Cables (RJ45)
Parallel Ports and Cables (DB-25)
● A network port, also known as
● Parallel ports can transmit 8 bits of data an RJ-45 port, connects a
at one time and is used to connect computer to a network.
parallel device like printer. ● Types: Ethernet-10Mbps, Fast
Ethernet- 100Mbps and
Gigabit Ethernet-1000Mbps.

DB-25 Male Connector


DB-25 Female Connector
3.5 Ports & Cables
PS/2 Ports
● A PS/2 port connects a keyboard or a mouse to a
computer.
Audio Ports
● An audio port connects audio devices to the
computer.

Video Ports and Connectors


● A vide port connects monitor cable to a
computer.
3.6 Input Devices
● An input device is used to enter data or
instructions into a computer.

Types:
● Mouse and keyboard
● Digital camera and digital video camera
● Biometric authentication device
● Touch screen
● Scanner
● A keyboard, video, mouse (KVM) switch is a hardware device that can be used
to control more than one computer using a single keyboard, monitor, and
mouse.
3.7 Output devices

● An output device is used to present information to the user from a


computer.

Types:

● Monitors
● Projectors
● Scanners
● Printers
● Speakers
3.6 Output Device: Monitor

● Electronic�device�that�outputs�information�in�pictorial�form.

Types:

● Cathode-Ray Tube (CRT)

● Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)

● Light Emitting Diode (LED)


3.6.1 Monitor: Cathode-Ray Tube (CRT)
● Vacuum tube comprised of an electron gun at
one end and a fluorescent screen at another end

● Capable of producing thousands of different


colors and a resolution of up to 2048 x 1536
pixels, low refresh rates (approximated 60 Hz)

● They emit a very small amount of X-ray


radiation

● Their illumination levels can strain the eyes and


reduce visual acuity
3.6.2 Monitor: Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)

● LCD surpassed the picture quality


of CRTs
● LCD uses the light-modulating
characteristics of liquid crystals

● They cannot produce light on


their own: liquid crystals use a
reflector or backlight to generate
images in monochrome or color

● Low response time and loss of


contrast in low and high-
temperature environments
3.6.3 Monitor: Light Emitting Diode (LED)

● Latest type of monitors in the market today,


● LED display uses light-emitting diodes for
backlighting
● A light-emitting diode is capable of
producing light from electricity
● It lasts longer and produces several different
colors
● Most modern digital displays use organic
light-emitting diode (OLED)
● OLED consists of an organic compound film
that emits light in response to an electric
current.
