A hard disk drive[1] (often shortened as "hard disk"[2] or "hard drive"[3]), is a non-volatile storage device which stores digitally encoded data on rapidly rotating platters with magnetic surfaces. Strictly speaking, "drive" refers to a device distinct from its medium, such as a tape drive and its tape, or a floppy disk drive and its floppy disk. Early HDDs had removable media; however, an HDD today is typically a sealed unit (except for a filtered vent hole to equalize air pressure) with fixed media.[4] However, in more recent years, there has been a partial return to the use of removable hard disks, such as the Iomega Jaz and Rev drives and disks and the SyQuest SyJet and Square drives and disks, and the Castlewood Orb drive and disk, among other models.
