Hard drive

Overview

The static storage for a computer, Server or NAS. SSD, NVMe, M.2, Solid State, or "Spinning Disk," are words to describe types of drives. Measured in TB or GB. 256 GB SSD is very common for standard workstations. Associated with this are "removable drives" that can be either a hard drive or disk drive (CD/DVD, etc.) that connects via USB, or some other connector, or a Flash Drive, sometimes called a Thumb Drive, for temporarily connecting files to a computer.
