Cosa (chi) è removable hard disk - definizione

EXCHANGEABLE COMPUTER STORAGE MEDIUM THAT IS READ OR WRITTEN USING A DEDICATED STORAGE DEVICE WHICH IS EXTERNAL OR BUILT INTO THE COMPUTER
Removable medium; Removeable media; Removable disk; Removable Disk Storage; Removable storage; ⏏

removable hard disk      
<storage> A type of magnetic disk, or possibly magneto-optical disk which is not permanently attached to the disk drive (not a fixed disk) but which can be taken out and replaced, allowing many disks to be used in the same drive. The term "removable disk" would seem to be applicable to floppy disks but is generally reserved for hard disks in suitable cartridges such as those made by Syquest, Iomega and others. Removable disk packs were common on minicomputers such as the PDP-11 in use in the 1970s except that the drives were the size of washing machines and the disk packs as big as car wheels. Removable disks became popular on microcomputers in the 1990s as a cheap way of expanding disk space, transporting large amounts of data between computers and storing backups. Large, cheap fixed hard disks and {USB memory sticks} have made removable disks less attractive. (2007-06-14)

Removable media         
Expandable storage is a form of computer storage that is designed to be inserted and removed from a system. Some forms of removable media, such as optical discs, require a reader to be installed in the computer, while others, such as USB flash drives, have all the hardware required to read them built into the device, so only need a driver to be installed in order to communicate with the device.

Removable media

In computing, a removable media is a data storage media that is designed to be readily inserted and removed from a system. Most early removable media, such as floppy disks and optical discs, require a dedicated read/write device (i.e. a drive) to be installed in the computer, while others, such as USB flash drives, are plug-and-play with all the hardware required to read them built into the device, so only need a driver software to be installed in order to communicate with the device. Some removable media readers/drives are integrated into the computer case, while others are standalone devices that need to be additionally installed or connected.

Examples of removable media that require a dedicated reader drive include:

  • Optical discs, e.g. Blu-rays (both standard and UHD versions), DVDs, CDs
  • Flash memory-based memory cards, e.g. CompactFlash, Secure Digital, Memory Stick
  • Magnetic storage media
    • Floppy and Zip disks (now obsolete)
    • Disk packs (now obsolete)
    • Magnetic tapes (now obsolete)
  • Paper data storage, e.g. punched cards, punched tapes (now obsolete)

Examples of removable media that are standalone plug-and-play devices that carry their own reader hardwares include:

  • USB flash drives
  • Portable storage devices
    • Dedicated external solid state drives (SSD)
    • Enclosured mass storage drives, i.e. modified hard disk drives (HDD)/internal SSDs
  • Peripheral devices that have integrated data storage capability
    • Digital cameras
    • Mobile devices such as smartphones, tablets and handheld game consoles
    • Portable media players
  • Other external or dockable peripherals that have expandable removable media capabilities, usually via a USB port or memory card reader
    • USB hubs
    • Wired or wireless printers
    • Network routers, access points and switchs

Using removable media can pose some computer security risks, including viruses, data theft and the introduction of malware.
