Otherwise known as a Floppy Disk. They were very popular before USB Flash Drives. Even while CD's existed, Floppy Disks were great because you could quickly and easily save any data you may have to a Floppy Disk. They didn't have much space on them, but they could save a good amount of documents on them. They weren't too reliable because it was like saving to a tape. They could break fairly easily.
In terms of the actual drive, that would be in virtually every computer near the CD Drive and it would accept only the Floppy Disk. It was quite similar to a VCR (if you know what that is) where the eject button would physically kick the disk out of the drive (not a button per se). To access the disk, one would click My Computer on the PC and they should see an option for the drive, if one is connected to the machine.
If you have a USB port on the computer, the new flash drives can be plugged in and treated as a new drive. Very useful!
HDD is an abbreviation for Hard Disk Drive.
