oscillation, expressed in hertz.

group address (GADDR)

(1) In

communications, a multidestination

address associated with one or more

stations on a network.

Contrast

with individual address.

(2) In

Synchronous Data Link Control

(SDLC), an address in addition to a

specific address that is common to

two or more secondary stations.

half-duplex

In data

communication, pertaining to

transmission in only one direction at

a time.

Contrast with duplex.

hard disk

A rigid magnetic disk

such as the internal disks used in

the system units of

personal-computer systems and in

external hard disk drives.

to a computer.

hardware

(1)

All or part of the

physical components of an

information processing system, such

as computers or peripheral devices.

(T) (2)

The equipment, as opposed

to the programming, of a computer.

A hard disk

subsystem feature of servers and

storage enclosures that enables you

to remove and replace hard disk

drives without turning off the

system.

(2)

To replace a hard disk

drive while the system is turned on.
