peripherals are anything that can plug into the computer to help feed it data to run
Is 1.10MHz faster then 750MHz on a computer?
1.10 MHz is tremendously slower than 750 MHz. If you meant 1.10 GHz vs. 750 MHz, then yes, 1.10 GHz is faster than 750 MHz.
Yes, it is. Because it is outside the computer, is a secondary device because your computer can function without it.

Why is the processor required?
A processor is the thinking mechanism of the computer. While a Hard Drive/Disk holds the data of a computer, the processor is what 'thinks' and determines how to run whatever files are on your computer, as well as keeps them updated. Basically, if you have no processor, your computer will sit with a load of data and take no commands, do no thinking or display information. in simpler words it is the heart of the mahine without it you can't do anything.

You can't do that. It is not that type of graphics tablet. You're probably looking for something like Wacom's Cintiqu (see the related link) which actually lets your draw on the screen but that is quite expensive.
What is a hub refering to hardware devices?
A hub is used in network situations. It provides a central connection for multiple media segments. The hub repeats a signal received on one port and send them to ALL other ports. A hub operates in half duplex mode, meaning that devices can only send when no other devices are sending data.
Use a switch when possible.

What is zif and pata are they the same type of drive connections?
ZIF stands for "Zero Insertion Force."
There are 2 industry uses for the term ZIF ; one is in motherboard CPU sockets, the other is for ultraportable harddrives, like used in netbooks and notebooks.
Most types of CPU sockets are ZIF sockets. There is generally a lever which can be activated to release the pins of the CPU from the socket and allow it to be inserted or removed without damage. There is no single connection ZIF connection, it is merely a concept in connections, with a different layout for different types of chips.
ZIF, for harddrives is an ultra-thin ribbon cable with a rigid end that slides into the harddrive connector. Most ZIF drives so far are PATA command set and are physically 1.3" or 1.8" drives.
There are converters available to use CompactFlash cards in ZIF slots, and there are converters available to use ZIF PATA harddrives in 2.5" and 3.5" PATA devices.
PATA stands for "Parallel Advanced Technology Attachment" as opposed to the other common ATA standard SATA, which is serial instead of parallel. PATA is a 40-pin data connector used for hard drives, cdrom/dvd drives, and other types of integrated data storage.
SATA does not use a ZIF Connector (so far) , for micro-sized devices like 1.3" and 1.8" and even 2.5" harddrives , they use something called MicroSATA, which puts all 13 pins of SATA cables on a thin card-edge connector.
