​A(n) ____________________ provides the interface between the storage device and system bus.

A system bus can be conceptually or physically divided into specialized subsets, including the data, address, control, and power buses.

Serial channels in buses are more reliable than parallel channels at very high speeds.

Until the 2000s, system buses were always constructed with serial electrical lines.

There are typically multiple storage and I/O devices connected to a computer, collectively referred to as ____.

Both multicore and multiple-processor architectures are examples of scaling up because they increase the power of a single computer system.

With serial communication lines in a bus, each line carries only one bit value or signal at a time, and many lines are required to carry data, address, and control bits.

Primary storage extends the limited capacity of CPU registers.

The ____ connects only the CPU and memory.

Block size is normally stated in bytes and is generally the same between storage devices, especially in a single storage device.
