Identifying installed drives

Your computer includes a hard drive (with a rotating disc) or a solid state-drive (SSD) with solid-state memory. Because an SSD has no moving parts, it does not generate as much heat as a hard drive.

To view the drives installed on the computer, select Start > Computer.
