Hardware repair

While computer hardware configuration varies widely, a repair technician

will work with five general categories of hardware; desktop computers,

laptops, servers, computer clusters and smartphones / mobile computing.

Technicians also work with and occasionally repair a range of

peripherals, including input devices (like keyboards, mice, and

scanners), output devices (like displays, printers, and speakers), and

data storage devices such as internal and external hard drives and disk

arrays. Technicians involved in system administration might also work

with networking hardware, including routers, switches, fiber optics, and

wireless networks.
