> Granted hard drives kind of resemble "hard disks" still. No, it is a good example by now. A modern M.2 SSD looks much more like a stick of RAM than any kind of spinning disk. Sure, spinning hard disks are still around, and might stick around for quite a while (data centers, archival...), but when someone at their desk says "save on disk" nowadays, it increasingly will be on such an entirely non-disk-looking disk.
