    True, but most consumers aren’t doing bulk storage. Most people just have cell phone and laptop

  Drag thinks solid state drives are drives and they’re hard.

    But, my dearest Drag, you miss the point! There will be generations of humans that have no experience of spinning rust, of whirring platters, or of the dreaded tick- tick- tick- of a crashed head and lost data. What will they do?

  I’m confused, I call both HDDs and SSDs hard drives or disks. What’s the non-obsolete term?

    HDD is hard disk drive. SSD is solid-state drive. Though I still use the term “hard drive” to refer to both of them.

      I know what the acronyms mean. But I refer to them both as hard drive.

  Hi I'm technically a Zoomer, I grew up with HDDs, hybrids and 32Gb SSDs. I'm just about 30 :)

  Well, people like to say “check their hard drives” when referring to pedos, so the word itself isn’t lost yet. But there might be some other Gen Z’s who don’t actually know what that is considering we were raised with Chromebooks…
