A great technical book for this is Memory Systems: Cache, DRAM, Disk.
I'd say CLRS is the most fundamental, since all CS is built on algorithms.
For architecture/systems people (my area):
Computer Architecture: A Quantitative Approach by Patterson and Hennessy. Their other book Computer Organization and Design is excellent as well (and should be read first).
All books by Andrew Tanenbaum. His distributed systems, OS, and network books are excellent reads.
The Dinosaur book for OSes.
I also really like Smith/Nair for Virtual Machines. It is a new book and is not among the classics yet, but it is great.
For memory, caches, and disks, I recommend Jacob. It is also a newer book, but is essential to understand the Von Neumann bottleneck and possible solutions.
And, of course, the dragon book for getting started compilers. Then Ken Kennedy for advanced compilers.
And as a side note:
For AI, Russell and Norvig is required reading.
For type systems, Pierce is awesome.
