Välisseadmetelt

Välisseadmetelt refers to peripheral devices in Estonian. These are hardware components that are connected to a computer system but are not part of the core computer itself, such as the central processing unit (CPU), memory (RAM), or motherboard. Peripheral devices expand the functionality of a computer, allowing it to interact with the outside world and perform a wider range of tasks.

There are three main categories of välisseadmetelt: input devices, output devices, and storage devices. Input devices allow users to send data and commands to the computer. Examples include keyboards, mice, scanners, and microphones. Output devices enable the computer to present information to the user. Common output devices are monitors, printers, speakers, and projectors. Storage devices, while often integrated within the computer's chassis, are also considered peripherals when they are external or serve a distinct storage purpose. These include external hard drives, USB flash drives, and optical drives.

The concept of välisseadmetelt is crucial for understanding how computers are used in practice. Without peripherals, a computer would be an isolated processing unit, unable to receive instructions or display results. The variety and advancement of peripheral technology directly impact user experience and the capabilities of computing systems. Connectivity methods, such as USB, HDMI, and wireless technologies, facilitate the seamless integration of these external components with the main computer.
