Usage Note
Hardware is used in Spanish exactly as in English for the physical components of a computer system. It is invariable — the plural is also hardware or sometimes los hardwares informally. The RAE accepts the loan word; componentes físicos is a more native alternative but rarely used in practice.
Examples
"El problema es del hardware, no del software."
Natural Translation
The problem is with the hardware, not the software.
