Definition of disk drive
disk drivenoun
(tin học) ổ đĩa
//
The term "disk drive" arose from the core technology it describes: a spinning **disk** that stores data. The "drive" part refers to the mechanism that **drives** the disk, allowing it to spin and access data. The term first appeared in the 1950s, around the same time as the invention of magnetic disk storage. The initial use of the term was to describe devices that read and wrote data onto large, rigid disks. As technology evolved, the term has been applied to various disk types, including floppy disks and the familiar hard drives used in modern computers.
