While different computers will have different hardware inside, there are similarities between most PCs.

Below are the components you'll always be sure to find

• Motherboard
• CPU
• RAM
• Hard Drive
• Case

In addition to these components, there are others that are found in many, but not all, systems

• Optical Drives
• Expansion Cards
• Fans

Now, let's pretend you are a law enforcement officer working a big case, and you need to collect evidence to bring to your IT department for forensic analysis, which component would you bring to them and why? Although most computers are small and portable, not all are, so simply answering that you would bring all components to them is not enough to answer this, as I would want you to explain why you must bring all the components and not just a single or multiple components (Even a single or stating multiple components requires an explanation as to why).

To receive full credit, discussion responses should answer each part of the question, use correct spelling/grammar, and be at least 500 words.
