Acronyms I doubt it Oliver, but could be wrong. It is normal in Italian to immediately invent an acronym for any term which is three words long (phone call has about twelve syllables in Italian). An apparato periferico is a peripheral in English, which hardly needs an abbreviation.

Acronym thanks for the input so far; the basic meaning was clear, I was hoping someone might know if there is a standard acronym for this in English

processor peripherals and/or memory peripherals

Very old computer terminology. Your hard disk is a "peripheral" because originally the central processing unit occupied a whole room and all the rest was peripheral.
