                  Hard Disk Drive (HHD) – often called hard drive or
                  hard disk. This is the most common storage device
                  that do not need power to maintain data; these store
                   data through spinning platters or magnetic disks,

                                      Flash Drive – highly portable
                                       small data storage devices
                                      making use of flash memory
                                       and a Universal Serial Bus
