Comment on Is "disk" just a different spelling of "disc" or are they actually different words?

I’ve always viewed it as the Disk contains the Disc. IOW, the floppy has the magnetic disc in it. The optical disc is the disc without the Disk.

Probably completely wrong etymologically, but semantically it’s fun.
