A hard disk is the physical medium information storage device of most computerized systems. It is an actual disk that rotates at high speed. The surface is coated with magnetic material, and data is stored magnetically on the surface. A tiny read/write head on the end of an arm that can move over the surface of the disk does the reading and writing to transfer the information to and from the medium.
