Drive

A drive, in technology, typically refers to a device used to store and retrieve digital data. It can be a hard disk drive (HDD), which uses spinning disks and magnetic storage, or a solid-state drive (SSD), which uses flash memory for faster access. Drives are essential components of computers and other electronic devices, providing long-term storage for operating systems, software, and files. They allow users to save, organize, and access data efficiently. In everyday use, "drive" can also refer to the process of operating a vehicle, but in tech, it primarily means data storage hardware.
