That's nonsense. There is no 'H' in SSD. The 'hard' as in hard disk drive comes from the spinning disks inside being hard. In contrast to the floppy ones inside of a floppy disk... A solid state drive has no spinning disks at all. It's just computer chips if you open it. So we cross out any 'H' and 'F's. And you're left with the 'D'.

They asked what comes to mind. Nothing about accuracy. So I'm right and you're wrong.

Well, calling it nonsense was the first thing that came to my mind, so guess we're all "right" here?!
