Your computer’s hard drive is where all your files are stored. This includes the files required to run the computer’s operating system and your installed applications. Think of the hard drive as a digital filing cabinet. How much information can be stored on your computer’s hard drive depends on its size. Newer hard drives are measured in gigabytes or terabytes (TB). Older hard drives were measured using megabytes (MB).

Institutions may require that you have a hard drive with enough space to install additional programs and store your documents, such as homework assignments.
