Anything related to hard disk drives (HDDs), a.k.a. hard-disks or hard-drives (HDs), i.e. electromechanical devices often found inside computers used as secondary storage (mass-storage). They can store information in digital form by magnetizing tiny areas of magnetic material with which the their internal disk-shaped rotating platters are coated.
