Just only watch the intro lecture and I can confidently confirm that this course would be fantastic. However, the professor mentioned that this course is only about processor. Anyone know similar courses/books about filesystem, network, RAM, ....?

I think MIT's 6.033 should cover a lot of what you're looking for; it goes deep on the "systems" that build up modern computing.

As pointed out in the comments, 6.033 is a good overarching course to learn about a lot of computer systems fundamentals. If you want to dig deeper into networks, OS, computer architecture, MIT has plenty of specific courses for those:
