Older diskette popular in the 1970's that is similar in concept to the 3.5-inch floppy diskette with less capacity and a larger dimension. Unlike the 3.5-inch diskettes, the 5.25-inch diskettes did not have a hard shell and were flimsy. The 5.25-inch diskettes were available in a capacity of 360kb low-density and 1.2MB high-density size; by 1994 the 5.25-inch disk was extinct and was replaced by the popularity of the 3.5-inch disks.

3.5-Inch diskette
In the past, one of the most commonly used methods to backup and store data. The 3.5-Inch floppy diskettes have dimensions of 8.9cm in width by 9.3cm in height and are referred to as floppies because of the circular magnetic floppy within the hard shell. 3.5-inch floppy diskettes come in sizes of 720kb low-density and the 1.44MB high density capacity.

Vacuum tube
A glass tube that has had all gas has been removed creating a vacuum. Vacuum tubes contain electrodes for controlling electron flow and were commonly used in early computers as a switch or an amplifier. To the right is a collection of different types of vacuum tubes to give you a better understanding of what these look like. Today, vacuum tubes are no longer used and have been replaced by transistors in computers.

Moore's Law
The observation made by Gordon Moore in the April 19, 1965 paper "Cramming More Components Onto Integrated Circuits" that was later coined by the press as Moore's Law. The observation is that ever since the Integrated Circuit has been developed, the amount of transistors has doubled per square inch. Dr. Gordon Moore admitted that his law is expected to reach its physical limits in the year 2017.

Jumper
Jumpers allow the computer to close an electrical circuit, allowing the electricity to flow throughout certain sections of the circuit board. Jumpers consist of a set of small pins that can be covered with a small plastic box as shown in the illustration to the right. Below the illustration is a picture of what the jumpers may look like. In this example, the jumpers have a small tab on top of them allowing them to be easily removed.
Jumpers are used to configure the settings for computer peripherals such as the motherboard, hard drives, modems, sound cards, and various other components.
Today, most users will not have to adjust or change the jumpers on their motherboard and will often only need to change the jumpers for a new hard disk drive. As can be seen in the below picture most hard disk drives with jumpers will have 3 sets of two pins or six pins and moving the jumper block will change the drive from master drive, slave drive, or cable select.
Note: When changing the jumpers on any device, the device and your computer should be turned off first. In addition whenever inside the computer you should always be aware of ESD
