As can be seen in the above picture, the desktop hard drive consists of the following components: the head actuator, read/write actuator arm, read/write head, spindle, and platter. On the back of a hard drive is a circuit board called the disk controller. Tip: New users often confuse memory (RAM) with disk drive space. See our memory definition for a comparison between memory and storage.
The actuator on an anti-lock brake system (ABS) is known as an ABS actuator. This is an electronic device that receives a signal from the vehicle's computer to control the brake pressure so that the wheels will not become locked up. The computer monitors the signals on a vehicle's braking system several 100,000 times per second, in some cases. When the computer senses that a brake is beginning to lock up, the ABS actuator adjusts the brake pressure being applied to the wheel and prevents the wheel from locking. Offered as an option on several models of vehicles sold worldwide, the anti-lock brake system is intended to avoid accidents related to wheels becoming locked as the brakes are being applied.
