    Trick question?

    1. External storage would be something such as an external hardrive and or flash drive.

    2. Internal memory being the internal storage of the computer system on which the operating system is stored such as the SSD or HDD. It could even be the RAM too.

    3. Processor being the CPU which is used to process information, this is one of the many crucial parts of any computer system.

    4. Nothing?

    1: External Storage is used for efficiency and mobility and is not always a part of a computer system.

    2: Computers rely on internal memory to boot operating systems and drivers for the peripherals and chipsets for your computer so you can say it is a general part of the computer.

    3: Processor is the 'core' or the 'brain' of the computer which makes it essential.

    Hence, I've come to a conclusion that External Storage is not a general part of the computer.

    But at the same time, External story can be used for a computer so we can say answer "D" is correct because ES Devices can be used for example: TV's.

    Computer system is inside computer box.External storage is outside the computer itself and can't be considered as part of computer system.It's just computer input.
