Cooler didn't arrive until after dinner. If I were twenty years younger I'd have stayed up all night. 😆
As I suspect a lot of people are doing, I'm going to keep using my existing graphics card until RTX 5000 series drops in January. Everything else is new, though. First build in seven years.
I guess you didn't search hard enough?

"In addition to referring to the disks themselves, the term hard disk is also used to refer to the whole of a computer’s internal data storage. Beginning in the early 21st century, some personal computers and laptops were produced that used solid-state drives (SSDs) that relied on flash memory chips instead of hard disks to store information."

"Hard Drive may also refer to:
Solid-state drive, a computer storage device that has no moving parts"

"What is an SSD?
SSDs (solid state drives) are the newer of the type of hard drive. They have become the preferred format for high-end laptops’ internal hard drives, and all smartphones and tablets also use a form of SSD."
Back when hard drive was first used, it meant any non-volatile type of storage that was 'hard', I was literally there. When people talked about HD, they meant computer storage since HD tvs werent even a thing. Now go relax man, no need to get all fussed about this simple discussion, you started this just because I said that calling an SSD a hard drive isnt wrong, which it isnt, but calling if HDD is because that implies a disk, thats all.
Yeah I searched for the definitions not some blog posts bruh. Are those the original definitions you were talking about?
Of course "Hard drive" can refer to other things. It's just incorrect in the same way refering to a SSD as a HDD is wrong. Wikipedia is just helpful.
Yeah, because you are wrong mate. Just teach people the corrent terms instead. It isn't hard. It's literally 3 letters. People use the wrong terms all the time and that's obviusly fine when you were a kid, but don't spread it into the modern age.
Encyclopedia Britannica is a blog post? The one that exists since 1768? Alright man, have fun winning arguments in your head, you are delusional.
You didn't link to the actual dictionary like I did. You linked to an article.
