CPU sockets are used on the motherboard in desktop and server computers. Because they allow easy swapping of components, they are also used for prototyping new circuits. Laptops typically use surface-mount CPUs, which take up less space on the motherboard than a socketed part.
An example of hot swapping is the express ability to pull a Universal Serial Bus (USB) peripheral device, such as a thumb drive, external hard disk drive (HDD), mouse, keyboard, or printer out of a computer's USB slot or peripheral hub without ejecting it first.
A SCSI connector (/ ˈ s k ʌ z i / SKUZ-ee) is used to connect computer parts that communicate with each other via the SCSI standard. Generally, two connectors, designated male and female, plug together to form a connection which allows two components, such as a computer and a disk drive, to communicate with each other.
At this point, the kernel can change processor modes if it desires, but this bars usage of the runtime services (unless the kernel switches back again). [ 37 ] : sections 2.3.2 and 2.3.4 As of version 3.15, the Linux kernel supports 64-bit kernels to be booted on 32-bit UEFI firmware implementations running on x86-64 CPUs, with UEFI handover ...
A case's motherboard and power supply unit (PSU) form factor must all match, though some smaller form factor motherboards of the same family will fit larger cases. For example, an ATX case will usually accommodate a microATX motherboard. Laptop computers generally use highly integrated, miniaturized, and customized motherboards.

The HP Pavilion dv7 was a model series of laptops manufactured by Hewlett-Packard Company from 2008 to 2012 that featured 16:10 17.0" or 16:9 17.3" diagonal displays. It was produced concurrently with the HP Pavilion dv4 and the HP Pavilion dv5 series, featuring 14.1" and 15.4" displays respectively.
When a backplane is used with a plug-in single-board computer (SBC) or system host board (SHB), the combination provides the same functionality as a motherboard, providing processing power, memory, I/O and slots for plug-in cards. While there are a few motherboards that offer more than 8 slots, that is the traditional limit.
