Hardware.
Computer hardware is the physical parts of a computer, including the digital circuitry, as distinguished from the computer Software (programs) that executes within the hardware. The hardware of a computer are periodically changed, when in need of an upgrade. In comparison Software and Data are constantly changed and readily created, modified or erased on the computer. Firmware is a special type of Software that rarely, if ever, needs to be changed and is stored on hardware devices such as read-only memory (ROM).
