A technician removes a 2.5-inch storage device from a laptop that contains spinning platters coated with magnetic material. Which type of internal storage device has the technician just removed?
Hard disk drives (HDDs) store data on rapidly rotating magnetic platters and are still common in laptops, especially budget models. Solid-state drives (SSDs) use flash memory and have no moving parts. USB flash drives are removable external devices that connect over a USB interface rather than being mounted internally. A DIMM RAM module is volatile system memory, not long-term data storage.
