While much less common now, yes it is possible to drive external hard drives, zip disks and inkjet and laser printers.

Difference between central devices and peripheral devices?

A peripheral device, more commonly referred to as a peripheral, is a "device attached to a host computer behind the chipset whose primary functionality is dependent upon the host...". Thus, a peripheral is any device you attach to your computer which is not central to your computer's standard operation. Printers, scanners, game controllers, and security dongles are all examples of peripherals. This definition can be found here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peripherals The term "hardware device," however, seems a redundant phrasing, since any "device" by definition would be hardware.
