Definition of a Hard Disk



Hard Disk Drive may be defined as PC component that is used for the permanent storage of data. The data stored in the hard disk is not lost by power failure. Hard drives have rigid and round disk which are called platters. These platters are made of aluminum or glass. This is because of these rigid platters that the term hard disk is used. These platters cannot be removed. This is why they are sometimes called fixed disk drives.
