the hard disk drive is considered a nonvolatile storage device
No, they are permanent storage devices, only RAM is volatile storage device.
A volatile storage example is RAM (Random Access Memory), which loses its data when the power is turned off. Unlike nonvolatile storage, such as hard drives or SSDs, RAM is used for temporary data storage while a device is operating. Therefore, RAM is not considered nonvolatile storage.
HDD (Hard Disk Drive) is Non Volatile storage device (permanent). It is also considered as Secondary storage device. Secondary storage devices are always non volatile. Primary storage devices like Ram are volatile (temporary).

Nonvolatile memory retains data even when power is cut off, like in ROM chips. Nonvolatile storage devices can be slower than volatile ones as they often use technologies such as flash memory. This type of memory is commonly used in devices like USB drives and solid-state drives.
Examples of nonvolatile storage media include all of the following except ____. a. memory c. microfiche b. floppy disks d. PC Cards 3
Modern Computers have both volatile memory - RAM and non-volatile memory - Hard Disk
The greatest nonvolatile storage capacity in the computer system is usually found in secondary storage and mostly on the hard disk. RAM on the other hand represents the greatest volatile storage capacity on a computer.
Hard drives are not volatile storage devices, because the information within them is not lost when the drive loses power.
Volatile memory refers to memory that loses its state upon losing power. Computer RAM is volatile. Compare to nonvolatile memory (Hard disk drives, USB NAND flash storage devices, CD and DVD optical media, floppy media)
Hard drives are non-volatile, as you don't lose the data stored within if you turn off the power to them.
