What is hard disk?

You must not have been very familiar with this word. Yes I like the floppy and flash, hard drive as a medium to store data, documents, and so on. But the hard drive has more storage space than a floppy disk / flash. Let us become more familiar with the hardware on this one:

Drive consists of two types, namely IDE (Integrated Device Electronics) and SCSI (Small Computer System Interface). Both types can be distinguished from the data on the hard drive pin. Type has 40-pin IDE, SCSI has 50 pins while.
