Today "HDD" can mean either mechanical hard disk drive or SSD. To easily
differentiate, it has become commonplace to refer to mechanical hard

bit surprising.
I think this is the only list I've ever seen "rust" used in this way.
I have seen "rotating rust" used elsewhere, not particularly on a list.

we persevere we will reach our destination. -me, 2010
